In his call with his Israeli counterpart Gideon Sa’ar this morning, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot stresses “the need for all parties to respect the ceasefire in Lebanon,” says the Quai d’Orsay.

France reportedly accused Israel this week of dozens of violations of the ceasefire.

According to the French readout of the call, Barrot also called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, the release of all hostages, and a massive flow of humanitarian aid.

The diplomats also discuss the renewed fighting in Syria and the Iranian nuclear program, the French Foreign Ministry says.
