Headline: UNCAPTIONED: France's Recognition of Palestine Sparks International Backlash
Caption: France’s Recognition of Palestine Sparks International Backlash. US and Israel slam France's recognition of Palestine as harming peace. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio condemned the move as the US plans to skip the July 28–30 UN conference. France will formally back Palestinian statehood at the UN in September, becoming the top Western supporter. Over 140 UN states recognise Palestine; Spain, Norway, and Ireland joined recently. Israeli leaders called France’s move a terror reward and security threat. Trump questioned two-state solution, sparking global backlash over Gaza plans. Ceasefire talks led by US, Egypt, Qatar have stalled amid ongoing Gaza conflict. Since October 2023, nearly 60,000 Palestinians have died in Gaza amid growing calls to end fighting. 28 countries called on Israel to stop the Gaza war and allow humanitarian aid.
