  "summary": "Israel has strongly criticized French President Emmanuel Macron's recent remarks at the United Nations General Assembly, where he called the situation in Gaza a \"spectacle that shames us all.\" Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office described the statement as \"the grotesque absurdity\" and emphasized that it is \"staggering.\" The criticism comes in the wake of a tragic incident on Sunday, the eve of Yom Kippur, when a French citizen and father of six, Netanel Shukrun, was murdered by a Hamas terrorist in Judea and Samaria.",
