France’s Macron says will urge Israel not to reply with further escalation

Macron comments:

• We are all worried about possible escalation of Middle East conflict
• Iran has replied to Israel strike in Damascus in disproportionate fashion
• Situation is very unstable at the moment
• We will do everything we can to avoid escalation and convince Israel it should not reply to Iran strike with further escalation
• We have to stand by Israel’s side to ensure its protection
• Will talk to Netanyahu today, also in touch with other countries in the region

The market is showing optimistic signs but it’s still a highly-uncertain moment.
