French President Emmanuel Macron on Monday welcomed the start of Hamas’s release of Israeli captives in the Gaza Strip, saying that with their release, “peace becomes possible for Israel, for Gaza, and for the region.”
“I share the joy of the families,” Macron wrote on X, after seven captives were handed over to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). The French president made the remarks upon his arrival in Egypt to attend a summit on Gaza.
The Sharm El-Sheikh Peace Summit is being held today, co-chaired by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi and US President Donald Trump, with participation from leaders of more than 20 countries.
The summit aims to mobilize broader international support for President Trump’s peace plan for the Gaza Strip, amid ongoing discussions regarding post-war governance, security and reconstruction in the territory.
