EU Commissioner Condemns Israel's Plans to Block Charities in Gaza
(MENAFN) The European Union's Commissioner for Equality, Preparedness and Crisis Management Hadja Lahbib condemned Israel's intentions to prohibit international non-governmental organizations from operating in Gaza, characterizing the move as effectively cutting off critical humanitarian relief on Wednesday.
"Israel's plans to block INGOs in Gaza means blocking life-saving aid. The EU has been clear: the NGO registration law cannot be implemented in its current form. All barriers to humanitarian access must be lifted. IHL (international humanitarian law) leaves no room for doubt: aid must reach those in need," Lahbib stated on X, the social media platform owned by the U.S. company.
Israeli authorities continue maintaining severe restrictions on Gaza's border crossings despite a ceasefire arrangement that became operational in October. The blockade prevents mobile housing units and reconstruction supplies from entering the territory, intensifying a humanitarian emergency that impacts more than 2 million residents.
According to Palestinian officials, the ceasefire period has witnessed at least 414 fatalities within Gaza.
