EU: Israel breaking international law with regard to Gaza blockade
It is clear that Israel is engaging in an act of genocide across the Gaza Strip. Amid the deadly bombing, essential services have been cut off. All exits have been closed by the regime's forces and vital aid is not being allowed in.
EU foreign affairs ministers held emergency talks on Tuesday and had to concede that Israel is breaking international law.
The United Nation has already said that cutting water, cutting electricity, cutting food, to a mass of civilian people is against international law.
