Paris, March 19 (Xinhua) — French President Emmanuel Macron called on social media on Thursday for an immediate end to attacks on civilian infrastructure, particularly energy and water facilities, during the current war with Iran.
He reported that he had spoken with US President Donald Trump and Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani following the strikes on gas production facilities in Iran and Qatar. Macron noted that it is in everyone's interest to immediately impose a moratorium on such strikes.
He stressed that civilians and their basic needs, as well as the security of energy supplies, must be protected from military escalation.
Qatar's Interior Ministry and state-owned QatarEnergy said on Wednesday that the industrial city of Ras Laffan was hit by rocket fire, causing widespread fires and damage.
Earlier that day, the Israeli Air Force struck Iran's largest natural gas production facility in the south of the country. Israeli state television channel Kan TV News reported that the strike was carried out in coordination with the US administration.
Following the strike, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps issued an evacuation warning for several oil facilities in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar. –0–
