"If we think there are security risks we'll have plan Bs, and even plan Cs," he said.
French President Emmanuel Macron is set to speak with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sometime on Monday.
Ohana presented Macron with the current situation and requested that he continue to stand by Israel, just as he did immediately after Hamas's October 7 attack.
They claimed a famine is setting in Gaza and that Israel is "obligated to ensure the flow of humanitarian assistance" on the exact same day that over 400 humanitarian aid trucks entered the enclave.
French officials were holding a meeting on Monday to look at specific measures to step up security, such as checking bags on entrance to concert halls or places of worship.
"Recognition sends a message to Hamas and the other Palestinian terrorist organizations that murderous terror attacks on Israelis will be reciprocated with political gestures to the Palestinians."
Macron reiterated his opposition to military action in Rafah and noted that any forced transfer of the Gazan population would constitute a war crime according to international law.
Macron’s statement also comes at a time when the US position on support for Ukraine has been watered down due to partisan disputes in Congress.
