French President Emmanuel Macron has renewed his call for a political solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict following the deadly attack at a bus stop in Jerusalem.
“The spiral of violence must end. Only a political solution will enable the return of peace and stability for everyone in the region,” Macron wrote on X on Monday.
He said France condemned the attack and expressed condolences to the families of the victims and the people of Israel.
According to Israeli police, the perpetrators opened fire on people waiting at a bus stop in northern Jerusalem, with an eyewitness saying shots were also fired into a bus. Six people died and several others were injured before the attackers were shot dead by police.
