LJUBLJANA, Oct 21, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - France's President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday called for aid routes into Gaza to be reopened as a matter of "absolute urgency" to allow crucial aid in for war-stricken civilians.

"The situation in Gaza remains very fragile," Macron told a news conference in Ljubljana alongside Slovenian Prime Minister Robert Golob.

"We wish to remain committed along with our European, Arab and US partners to immediately obtain -- and this is a matter of absolute urgency -- the reopening of humanitarian sites and routes so that aid, food and basic necessities can be brought to the population."
