France rebukes world over Gaza as Canada, UK back Palestinian state at UNGA

At the United Nations General Assembly, French President Emmanuel Macron condemned Israel's restrictions on aid to Gaza, calling it a "shame" for the world. He emphasized that France had recognized a Palestinian state the previous year and criticized inaction regarding the situation in Gaza, where over 73,900 people have been killed since the war began in October 2023. UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham also warned that failure to deliver a two-state solution would undermine trust in politicians.
