France to Send Naval Aid to Gaza Hospitals Amid the Escalating Conflict

France’s Naval Aid Mission to Gaza

In response to the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, President Emmanuel Macron of France declared a significant humanitarian initiative. France is set to send a navy vessel to Gaza within the next 48 hours with the primary objective of providing essential support to Gaza’s strained hospital facilities. Macron disclosed this decision during a joint press conference with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi in Cairo.

Humanitarian Aid and Medical Supplies

In addition to deploying the naval vessel, France will also dispatch an aircraft loaded with vital medical supplies to Egypt. Egypt will play a pivotal role in facilitating the transfer of these crucial items into the besieged Palestinian region, where medical resources are critically needed.

Urgent Efforts to Prevent a Ground Invasion

The press conference in Cairo took place in the midst of escalating hostilities between Israel and Hamas. President al-Sisi emphasized the pressing need to prevent a ground invasion of the Gaza Strip, stressing the inevitability of severe civilian casualties that would result from such an assault. He revealed that the conflict had already claimed the lives of over 6,000 civilians, with a devastatingly high number of casualties among children.
