The Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office on Wednesday issued a stinging rebuke to French President Emmanuel Macron's UN speech denouncing settler violence against Palestinians in the West Bank. Macron's remarks that "Hamas has never struck in the West Bank" was a "grotesque absurdity", said the statement.
Israel rebuked French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday after he criticised Israeli actions in the West Bank in his speech at the United Nations General Assembly.
