Israel has accused French President Emmanuel Macron of a “crusade against the Jewish state” after he called on European countries to strengthen their position on Israel if the humanitarian situation in Gaza does not improve.

"There is no humanitarian blockade. This is a blatant lie,“ the Israeli Foreign Ministry said. ”Instead of putting pressure on jihadist terrorists, Macron wants to reward them with a Palestinian state. There is no doubt that their national holiday will be October 7," the statement added. | BGNES
