“The situation in Gaza and in the Occupied Territories is deteriorating by the hour, causing unbearable sufferings for civilians,” said Borrell in a message published on social media.

“No one seems to be able or willing to stop this,” he deplored, highlighting the ongoing genocidal Zionist aggression in Gaza since 3 October 2023, and to the daily attacks carried out by the occupation forces in the occupied Palestinian territories.

“Violent settlers spread destruction, hospitals are besieged, and UNRWA's activities are more and more at risk,” added Borrell.[/ecr]
