French lawmaker says Israel waging colonial war against Palestinians

Thomas Portes of the left-wing opposition France Unbowed (FLI) party, wrote on X that Israel gave one hour for patients and displaced persons to be evacuated from the Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza while dozens of babies are at risk of dying.
“Attacks are also increasing in the West Bank against civilians by settlers. Israel is waging a colonial war to eradicate the Palestinians,” he added.
And about French Defense Minister Sebastien Lecornu’s meeting Friday in Israel with his Israeli counterpart, Yoav Gallant, Portes said: “The (Emmanuel) Macron government is complicit in the massacre of the Palestinian people organized by Israel. Government of shame.”
Israel has killed more than 12,300 Palestinians in its air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip since an Oct. 7 surprise offensive by the Palestinian resistance group, Hamas. The official Israeli death toll, meanwhile, stands at about 1,200.
Thousands of buildings, including hospitals, mosques and churches, have been damaged or destroyed in Israel’s relentless strikes on the besieged enclave.
An Israeli blockade has also cut off Gaza from fuel, electricity, and water supplies, and reduced aid deliveries to a trickle.
