Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas has told France’s Emmanuel Macron that the international community must halt Israel’s “aggression” in the Gaza Strip, AFP reports.
“We urge you, President Macron, to stop this aggression,” Abbas said after the two leaders held talks in Ramallah in the occupied West Bank.
Macron told reporters that “nothing can justify” the suffering of civilians in Gaza, a narrow territory of some 2.4 million people.
