The EU’s foreign policy chief Josep Borrell called for faster aid deliveries to Gaza, and said the bloc was debating whether to call for a “humanitarian pause” in Israel’s conflict with Hamas. “In normal times, without war, 100 trucks enter Gaza every day, so it’s clear that 20 is not enough,” he said. “Personally, I think a humanitarian pause is needed in order to allow humanitarian support to come into and be distributed,” said Borrell.
