“Macron has once again chosen to stand with a murderous Islamist terrorist organisation and echo its despicable propaganda, accusing Israel of blood libels,“ a statement from Netanyahu’s office said.
“Israel will not stop and will not surrender.”
The United Nations and aid organisations have repeatedly warned of a humanitarian catastrophe in the war-ravaged territory as famine again looms.
“We need the United States. President (Donald) Trump has the levers. I have had tough words with Prime Minister Netanyahu. I got angry, but they (Israel) don’t depend on us, they depend on American weapons,“ he added.
Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz on Wednesday also denounced Macron’s comments.
The Israeli military “operates with the highest moral standards under difficult and complex circumstances -- certainly more so than France has done in its past wars,“ he added.
Israel says that its renewed bombardments are aimed at forcing Hamas to free hostages.
The war was triggered by Hamas’s October 7, 2023 attack on Israel which resulted in the deaths of 1,218 people, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally based on official data.
Israel’s retaliatory offensive has killed at least 52,928 people in Gaza, mostly civilians, according to figures from the territory’s Hamas-run health ministry, which the United Nations considers reliable.
