The EU issued a strong statement urging Israel to protect humanitarian space in the occupied Palestinian territories (OPTs), allow unrestricted aid access to Gaza, and cease using lethal force against aid workers. The statement, signed by several high-ranking EU officials, warns that new registration requirements risk forcing essential NGOs to leave, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis. Concerns over potential genocide in Gaza were raised, while several EU foreign ministers declined to sign the statement.
