French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot announced that a team of military and civilian personnel has been sent to Israel to take part in planning the post-ceasefire phase in Gaza.

During an interview with the French LCI television, Barrot said France had joined other countries contributing to the US-led coordination centre.

While he confirmed that French personnel were already stationed at the coordination centre, he did not share numbers.

Barrot added that France and the US are working to push for a UN resolution to deploy an International Stabilisation Force in Gaza once the ceasefire is fully secured.
