Due to the increasingly severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza, the European Union has submitted a series of sanctions proposals concerning Israel and Hamas to the Council.
Suspension of certain trade-related provisions of the Association Agreement between the EU and Israel.
Targeted sanctions against Hamas, extremist ministers in the Israeli government, and violent settlers.
Bilateral support to Israel is put on hold, except for funding for civil society initiatives and the Holocaust remembrance centre, Yad Vashem.
The horrific events taking place in Gaza daily must stop.
There needs to be an immediate ceasefire, unrestrained access for all humanitarian aid, and the release of all hostages held by Hamas.
