France, the European Union and even the United States raised their voices in the face of Israeli operations in Gaza. Emmanuel Macron called on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu this Wednesday to “cease” his operations.

Washington remains opposed to an Israeli ground attack on Rafah, in the far south of Palestinian territory, without guarantees of protection for civilians. At the same time, Benjamin Netanyahu promised Wednesday a “powerful” operation in Rafah once the civilian population has evacuated the area.
