He called for the immediate delivery of significant humanitarian aid, the release of hostages held by Hamas, and the establishment of a lasting ceasefire.
Macron held discussions with Egypt's President Abdel Fattah al-Sissi and Jordan's King Abdullah II to coordinate regional efforts and humanitarian actions.
