PARIS, Oct 2, 2024 (BSS/AFP) - French President Emmanuel Macron on Wednesday condemned "in the strongest possible terms" Iran's attacks against Israel, adding that France had "mobilised" its military resources in the Middle East to counter Tehran.

Macron also demanded that Iran-backed Lebanese group "Hezbollah cease its terrorist actions against Israel and its population", and asked Israel to "put an end to their military operations as soon as possible", the Elysee Palace said in a statement, adding France would "shortly be organising a conference in support of the Lebanese people and its institutions".
