Macron in Tel Aviv Calls for International Coalition to Fight Hamas

Bloomberg Quicktake published this video item, entitled “Macron in Tel Aviv Calls for International Coalition to Fight Hamas” – below is their description.

Emmanuel Macron called for an international coalition to fight Hamas and warned other Iranian-backed militant groups not to open new fronts in the war, as the French President met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a trip to Israel.

Israel’s military said there are “long weeks of fighting ahead,” though it wouldn’t say if a ground invasion of Gaza is imminent. Meanwhile, the International Committee of the Red Cross said some hospitals in northern Gaza have no power and are short of medicines.

On Monday night, Hamas released two women who were among around 220 hostages taken to Gaza when the militant group — designated a terrorist organization by the US and European Union — attacked southern Israel on Oct. 7. Israel says Hamas killed more than 1,400 people. Authorities in the Hamas-run Gaza Strip say Israel’s bombardments have killed thousands.
