European Council chief Antonio Costa on Friday criticised Israel’s plan to take over Gaza City, warning “such a decision must have consequences” for EU-Israel ties.
“I strongly urge the Israeli government to reconsider its decision,” Costa, who heads the body representing the bloc’s 27 states, wrote on X. “The situation in Gaza remains dramatic, and the decision by the Israeli government will only further worsen it.”
