EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell has proposed that the bloc suspend a political dialogue with Israel, citing possible human rights violations in the war in Gaza, according to four diplomats and a letter seen by Reuters. In the letter sent to EU foreign ministers ahead of their meeting this coming Monday, Mr Borrell cited “serious concerns about possible breaches of international humanitarian law in Gaza” and said “thus far, these concerns have not been sufficiently addressed by Israel”.
