Macron Condemns Israeli Plan to Seize Gaza City as 'Permanent War'
GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, AUG 11 – Macron warns Israel’s plan to seize Gaza City risks prolonged conflict and calls for a UN mission to protect civilians amid famine and over 61,000 Palestinian deaths, officials say.
- On Monday, August 11, French President Emmanuel Macron called for "This war must end now with a permanent ceasefire," condemning Israel's plan to take Gaza City as "a disaster" and a path to "permanent war."
- Since October 7, 2023, Hamas attacked Israel, killing 1200 and taking about 250 hostage, prompting Israel's devastating offensive on Gaza.
- Aid agencies warn that UN projections show more than two million Palestinians face severe food insecurity, despite Israel denying Gazan starvation and throttling aid flows.
- Macron urged the Security Council to establish a UN stabilization mission for Gaza, saying "I have asked my teams to work on this without delay with our partners," he added.
- International Court of Justice last year deemed it "plausible" that Israel's actions could amount to genocide, and in November the ICC issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant.
