Josep Borrell, the European Union’s foreign policy chief, says that Gaza before the war was the “greatest open-air prison.” Now, he said, it has become “the greatest open-air graveyard” where tens of thousands of people have died.
Borrell added that Gaza is also a “graveyard for many of the most important principles of humanitarian law” during a meeting of EU ministers in Brussels on Monday.
Gaza is facing famine. According to @theIPCinfo, 100% of people are acutely food insecure; in the North, 70% are facing famine. Hunger can’t be used as a weapon of war.
W/ @JanezLenarcic, we urge Israel to allow free, unimpeded, safe humanitarian access.https://t.co/1DAMzG5G3t
