Macron urges Israel to stop bombing in Gaza

BBC World Service - Weekend, Macron urges Israel to stop bombing in Gaza

The French President says a ceasefire would benefit Israel

Israel must stop killing babies and women in Gaza, French President Emmanuel Macron has told the BBC in an exclusive interview. He added there was "no justification" for the bombing, saying a ceasefire would benefit Israel. 

A major pro-Palestinian march taking place this Saturday in London has risen some controversy; and we hear from two survivors of Kristallnacht (the Night of Broken Glass) - an organised nationwide attack on Jews in Nazi Germany in 1938. 

Joining Paul Henley to discuss all this and more are Christos Christou, international president of Médecins Sans Frontières, and historian and writer Helene von Bismarck.
