The EU is considering various measures against Israel following a review indicating breaches of human rights obligations under the EU-Israel Association Agreement, triggered by Israel's military campaign in Gaza. Options include suspending the trade chapter of the agreement, banning imports from West Bank settlements, or restricting Israel from EU programs. While a full ban on settlement imports requires unanimous consent, individual nations could act independently. Despite opposition from some member states, a proposal outlining potential actions is set for discussion by EU foreign ministers on Tuesday. Separately, the EU announced an agreement to ensure aid reaches Gaza.
