Qatar's Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani and French President Emmanuel Macron held a phone call to discuss the worsening humanitarian situation in Gaza and ongoing regional developments, Qatar’s Amiri Diwan announced Saturday evening.
The conversation focused on bilateral cooperation and Israel’s continued military campaign in Gaza, which has persisted since October 7, 2023. The call comes in the lead-up to a high-level United Nations conference on the Palestinian issue, set to take place in New York later this month, co-chaired by France and Saudi Arabia.
Israel has rejected repeated international appeals for a ceasefire and continues its military operations in Gaza. The conflict has claimed nearly 54,800 Palestinian lives, according to local health authorities, with the majority reported to be women and children. Aid organizations have issued urgent warnings about the risk of famine among the more than 2 million residents of the besieged enclave.
In November 2024, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, citing alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. Additionally, Israel is currently the subject of a genocide case before the International Court of Justice (ICJ).
The Qatar-France call underscores renewed diplomatic efforts to address the crisis, as international concern mounts over the civilian toll and humanitarian conditions in Gaza.
