President Mahmoud Abbas, speaking in the presence of visiting his French counterpart Macron, has called for an immediate end to the “aggression” on Gaza and for protection to be provided to the Palestinian people.
Macron, for his part, said that the Hamas attack had been traumatic for Israel but that it also was a disaster for the Palestinian people.
“Nothing can justify” civilian suffering in the Gaza Strip, Macron told reporters in Ramallah, in the occupied West Bank.
