⌨Italian newspapers continue to highlight the Middle East, with renewed reports on the stalled Gaza ceasefire negotiations, including US and Israeli delegations leaving Doha and US blaming Hamas (Adnkronos, Corriere Della Sera, ANSA, HuffPost Italia). The significant development is French President Macron's widely reported announcement that France will recognize a Palestinian state in September, a move strongly condemned by Netanyahu as a reward for terror (Corriere Della Sera, La Repubblica, La Stampa, Sky TG24). Avvenire also notes the conflict's toll on Israeli soldiers.
