Netanyahu tells Macron that Israel was not created by the UN, but by 'blood of our heroic fighters'

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and French President Emmanuel Macron have engaged in a public dispute regarding Israel's existence and the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Macron, while calling for an end to arms exports to the region, stated that Israel's creation was a result of a United Nations decision. Netanyahu countered that Israel was established through the sacrifices of its soldiers during the War of Independence and criticized Macron's call for an arms embargo, arguing that it undermines Israel's right to defend itself against threats from Hamas and Hezbollah. This exchange highlights the ongoing tensions between Israel and its allies over the conflict in Gaza and the role of international support for Israel.
