French President Emmanuel Macron has condemned the recent Iranian missile attack on Israel, stating it in the “strongest possible terms.” This condemnation follows a series of missile strikes launched by Iran, reportedly targeting key military and security installations in Israel.
In response to these developments, Macron announced that France has mobilized its military forces across the Middle East to counter the threats posed by Iran.
The missile attack is part of escalating tensions in the region, with Iranian authorities claiming their actions were a reaction to recent assaults on Gaza and Lebanon.
While the attack was felt at the heart of Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed that Iran will “pay” for its aggression, indicating a potential for further military responses from Israel.
In light of these events, Macron emphasized the urgency for de-escalation and called for all parties involved to exercise restraint.
He reiterated France’s commitment to ensuring stability in the region and highlighted ongoing efforts to facilitate a ceasefire in Gaza, protect civilians, and deliver humanitarian aid.
