Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office issued a sharp rebuke of French President Emmanuel Macron's statements made at the United Nations, calling them "outrageous absurdity" and "inconceivable." The condemnation followed the recent murder of Natanel Shokron, a French citizen and father of six, who was killed by a Hamas terrorist in the West Bank on Sunday, the eve of Yom Kippur. Shokron's last words to his son were to flee.

The Prime Minister's office highlighted that Hamas terrorists carry out attacks against Israelis almost daily in the West Bank, resulting in numerous civilian deaths. They emphasized that ignorance is no excuse for ignoring the bloodshed, directly referencing the recent murder of the French national as an example of ongoing violence.
