The European Union warns of a “dark outlook” in southern Gaza

The High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Policy, Josep Borrell, warned of the complicated panorama in the face of Israel’s continuous bombings in the south of the Strip, where there are thousands of evacuees.

“The bombings continue with extraordinary intensity and from forums like the G7 we have asked that Israel not use the same tactics in the south as in the north of Gaza but they are the same or even worse,” said the head of European diplomacy to his arrival at the meeting of foreign ministers of the bloc.

“The prospects are really dark,” he added, lamenting that the Gazan population is forced to flee to Egypt and that there are no more shelters or safe places in the Strip.

Israel intercepted projectiles launched from Lebanon

According to the Israeli Army, six projectiles were intercepted by the defense system following several attacks from Lebanon were detected in northern Israel.

In response, Israeli artillery attacked positions from which the attacks had been carried out, he added.

The Hezbollah group and Palestinian militias in southern Lebanon have launched rockets, drones and anti-tank missiles, to which Israel, which has deployed more than 200,000 soldiers on its northern border, has responded with intense air and artillery attacks.
