French President Emmanuel Macron yesterday said he would hold a trilateral summit on the situation in Gaza with Egypt President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi and Jordan’s King Abdullah II.

Israel has pushed to seize territory in Gaza since the collapse of a short-lived truce in its war with Hamas, in what it has called a strategy to force the militants to free hostages still in captivity.

Simultaneously, Israel has escalated attacks on Lebanon and Syria.
