Israeli representatives will not participate at a “humanitarian conference” for Gaza in Paris organised today by French President Emmanuel Macron, his office said.
Like other governments, Israel nevertheless has “an interest in the humanitarian situation improving in Gaza”, an official in Macron’s office, who asked not to be named, told reporters on Wednesday.
The Elysee Palace added that Macron had spoken on Tuesday to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and the pair will talk again once the aid conference is over.
