French President Emmanuel Macron called Israel’s strikes on the Gaza Strip unjustified. Netanyahu responded

“In fact, civilians are being bombed today. These children, these women, these old people are being bombed and killed. There is no justification and no legitimacy for this,” said Macron.

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu soon responded – and held Hamas responsible for any civilian casualties.

“The crimes committed today by Hamas in Gaza will be committed tomorrow in Paris, New York and around the world. World leaders should condemn Hamas, not Israel.”
