French President Emmanuel Macron arrives in Tel Aviv to express his country’s “full solidarity” with Israel after the deadly October 7 assault by Palestinian terror group Hamas, according to an AFP journalist.

The French head of state was also expected to call for the “preservation of the civilian population” in Gaza, , the presidency says, as Israel carries out a relentless bombardment on Hamas targets in the Palestinian enclave and prepares for a ground offensive with the aim of destroying the terror group that rules the Strip.
