European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas says the EU condemns the killing of five Al Jazeera journalists in an Israeli airstrike outside Al Shifa hospital in Gaza City, including prominent correspondent Anas Al Sharif.
“We take note of the Israeli allegation that the group was Hamas terrorists, but there is a need in these cases to provide clear evidence, in the respect of rule of law, to avoid targeting of journalists,” she says in a statement on X, following a virtual discussion between EU foreign ministers on the Gaza war.
She also urges Israel to allow more trucks into Gaza and a better distribution of aid.
The war in Gaza grows more dangerous by the hour.
EU priorities remain humanitarian support, including access for NGOs, with an immediate ceasefire and release of remaining hostages.
