Macron calls for arms ban on Israel as Gaza war nears a year

French President Emmanuel Macron has called for a halt on arms deliveries to Israel which has been bombing Gaza for a year now, and recently launched a military operation against Lebanon.

“I think that today, the priority is that we return to a political solution, that we stop delivering weapons to fight in Gaza,” Macron told broadcaster France Inter on Saturday.

“France is not delivering any [weapon],” he added during the interview recorded early this week.
