French President Emmanuel Macron’s office says in a statement that Macron, in a phone call with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, expressed his firm opposition to a possible IDF military offensive in Rafah in southern Gaza.
“This could only lead to a humanitarian catastrophe of a new magnitude and to forced displacement of populations, which would constitute violations of international human rights and bring additional risk of regional escalation,” it says.
