Iran’s president urges end to Israeli ‘crimes’ in call with Macron

Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian calls for an end to “crimes” in Lebanon and Gaza in a phone call with his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron, the Iranian presidential website says.

They discussed ways to secure a “ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel,” a statement on the website says, adding that Pezeshkian “asked the French president to work together with other European countries to force the Zionist regime to stop the genocide and crimes in Gaza and Lebanon.”

Macron calls on Iran’s president to back Mideast “de-escalation.”
