“My prayers and thoughts go to the victims of these large-scale surprise attacks against Israeli civilians.”, declares Raphaël Morav, Israeli ambassador to France.

VSit cannot continue.”

“We know that Hamas has material and financial support from Iran, so it is obvious that Iran is behind this attack”, affirmed Raphaël Modav. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, for his part, declared his country “in war”.

These attacks aroused the indignation of the international community, from Emmanuel Macron to Ursula van der Leyen via Joe Biden, the German and Spanish leaders. The UN Security Council will meet urgently on Sunday October 8.
