French President Emmanuel Macron has called for the international coalition fighting the militant Islamic State group to be expanded to also fight Hamas after the Oct 7 attacks on Israel, AFP reports.

Macron, speaking after talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem, said that countries fighting IS “should also fight against Hamas.”

The French leader stressed there must be a “decisive relaunch” of the Palestinian peace process following the crisis set off by the deadly Hamas attacks and Israel’s response.
