EU foreign ministers will consider measures against Israel following an internal review that found Israel's actions in the occupied territories may violate the EU-Israel Association Agreement. The review, requested by 19 member states, cites an "unprecedented level of killing and injury of civilians." While some members oppose severing ties entirely, options like reduced trade and sanctions on West Bank settlement exports could be implemented with qualified majority support. Israel denies the allegations.
