Shots were fired today by the IDF near a pre-coordinated visit of an international diplomatic delegation outside #Jenin. Germany strongly condemns this. It is essential that diplomats can freely act as independent observers; they pose no security risk for Israel.
Israeli soldiers opened-fire earlier today in the direction of several foreign diplomats and journalists visiting the city of Jenin in the West Bank, after the Israel Defense Force claims they did not follow an approved route and entered an unauthorized area not coordinated with the IDF. The IDF has since apologized for the incident, with the Commanding Officer of the West Bank, Brig. Gen. Yaki Dolf announcing that an inquiry into the incident has been launched by the Ministry of Defense.

Horrified by news coming out of #Rafah on Israeli strikes killing dozens of displaced persons, including small children. I condemn this in the strongest terms.
There is no safe place in Gaza. These attacks must stop immediately. ICJ orders & IHL must be respected by all parties.
The arrival of the first EU aid shipment to the new US pier in Gaza via the Maritime Corridor is excellent news.
Romanian food supplies were channeled through #EUCivilProtection Mechanism.
It shows the way forward.
We'll keep providing humanitarian aid to Palestinians in need.
The first 🇪🇺 aid shipment has reached #Gaza through the #EUCivilProtectionMechanism via the new US pier. This marks a huge step forward. #Romania will continue to provide humanitarian aid to support civilians in need.

🥘Storceag -> recipe of the week👇
This recipe serves as an invitation to the magnificent #Danube Delta, one of the most beautiful areas of #Romania 🇷��, and home to a variety of delicious #fish soups.
Traditionally made of #sturgeon, today's star - the #storceag - originates from Sfântu Gheorghe (#Tulcea County), and it was originally a fishermen's #soup.
Paraphrasing the famous #culinary writer Radu Anton Roman - the storceag can be eaten only in Sf. Gheorghe, Danube Delta. It's a combination of the 🇺🇦 Ukrainian & 🇷🇴 (pastoral) Romanian cuisine - continental and fishy at the same time, but light.
Try it out, you won't regret it! 😀

#Salatădevinete 👉 a traditional Romanian 🇷🇴 eggplant dip, best served with fresh bread 🍞 and tomatoes 🍅. It is a beloved appetizer to be found in all traditional restaurants in Romania & abroad.
Give it a try! It's delicious!😁
The devastating Israeli airstrikes that killed @WCKitchen personnel yesterday bring the number of aid workers killed in this conflict to 196 – including more than 175 members of our own @UN staff.
This is unconscionable.
The sweet symbol of #Purim is the cookie called "Oznei Haman" (Haman's ears 👉 the villain in the Purim story).
Jewish families use to prepare this delicious treat in 🇷🇴 as well, so I got acquainted with it during my childhood spent in #Maramureș, which was one of the centers of Jewish life in RO.
I prepare them always on Purim; this year's version has a 🇷🇴 touch 👉 the #magiun filling with #nuts.
#ChagPurimSameach!🇷🇴🤝🇮🇱
