EU: ‘Israeli attacks in Gaza go beyond what is needed to fight Hamas’

The head of the European Union diplomacy Kaja Kallas said that « Israeli attacks in Gaza go beyond what it takes to fight Hamas » while the number of victims is still rising there, BBC announced on Wednesday. Kallas also said that the EU does not support a new model of distribution of assistance that has the support of the US and Israel, which bypasses the UN and other humanitarian organizations.

« We do not support the privatization of the distribution of humanitarian aid. Humanitarian aid should not be turned into weapons, » she said.

In Israeli air attacks and other military actions since the continuation of the war in March after a short trial, 3924 people were killed, the Ministry of Health by Hamas said. Israel claims that its goal is to destroy the hamas and release the remaining hostages.

More civilians were killed in the recent Israeli bombing. Last Friday, nine of the ten children of Palestinian doctors were killed in an air attack in Kan Junis. At least 35 people were killed at a school in N

Statements Kallas followed the reaction of the new German chancellor Friedrich Merz, who stated that he « no longer understands » Israeli goals in the besieged enclave.

« The way the civilian population is affected … It can no longer be justified by the fight against the terrorism of the Hamas, » Merz said.

The EU is one of the biggest donors of humanitarian aid to Gazi, but Kallas said that most of these helps cannot currently reach the Palestinians. In March, Israel imposed a complete blockade of Gaza and only after 11 weeks began to allow a small inflow of help.

« Most of the help gazi provides the EU, but she does not reach people because it blocks Israel, » Kallas said. « The suffering of the people is unbearable, » she emphasized.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen described the recent Israeli attacks on civilian infrastructure of gauze as « disgusting » and « disproportionate ».

These statements are accompanied by the most fierce criticism of the United Kingdom, France and Canada, who demanded that Israel interrupt their military offensive in Gaza. The United Kingdom then announced that he suspended trade negotiations with Israel.

The EU has launched a formal audit of its own trade agreement with Israel, and Kallas said she would present « options » at the next meeting of the EU Foreign Minister in Brussels on June 23.
