Macron calls for international coalition to combat Hamas

French President Emmanuel Macron proposed expanding the international coalition fighting against Islamic State in Iraq and Syria to include the fight against Hamas in Gaza. Macron emphasized that France and Israel share terrorism as their "common enemy" and expressed readiness to fight against Hamas. He warned against the risks of a regional conflict and called for the fight against Hamas to be without mercy but not without rules. Macron's visit to Israel aims to show solidarity, work on the release of hostages, guarantee Israel's security, and push for a two-state solution. However, his ability to influence events in the region is seen as limited due to a perceived shift towards a more pro-Israel stance.
