The French ministry added it had asked Israeli authorities to provide the"tangible" reasons that motivated the strike on the institute"without delay". In a separate statement, the ministry also expressed"very strong concerns" over the number of civilian victims in Gaza. AFP said on social network X that its office in the Gaza strip was shelled by the Israeli army and seriously damaged on Thursday by a strike.
