Israel is still demolishing Palestinian homes during a “ceasefire.” How is this not a news story?

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Is the Embassy of Israel “deeply concerned” about all the Palestinian football players in Gaza who have been killed by the Government of Israel?

EU foreign ministers brainstormed about ways to punish Russia’s economy in a future package of economic sanctions but failed to reach agreement on the measures currently on the table. @EddyWax https://t.co/Uk4tXafCcQ

So this is the Western Peace Plan..?

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

We will introduce “made in Europe” criteria for public procurement in certain strategic sectors.

Ensure that new foreign investments in our industry are truly in Europe’s interest.

And step up support for strategic industries, like cars and batteries

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

The smears won’t work this time. Anti-Zionism is not antisemitism.

Lisa Nandy weaponises antisemitism to shield Israeli apartheid. Keir Starmer and Labour ministers, like her, complicit in genocide belong in The Hague.

Just as we boycotted apartheid South Africa, we have a duty to boycott apartheid Israel — until Palestine is free.

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

We're united, more than ever, for a just and lasting peace for Ukraine.

We support @POTUS efforts to this end.

Ukraine must be in the strongest position before, during and after any ceasefire.

This will be front and center in our EUCO and Coalition of the Willing meetings.

He lies as he breathes.

The EU should free itself from the destructive socialist pressure. A centre right majority is possible in the European Parliament.
A majority that will reduce red tape. A majority that will protect our citizens and set the innovative powers of our private sector free. #soteu2025

[Marc Botenga MEP @BotengaM]

I just requested, on behalf of @Left_EU, that the European Parliament condemn the illegal Israeli attack on Iran. But the mainstream political parties refused. When Russia illegally attacks Ukraine, they condemn it. When Israel illegally attacks Iran, they refuse to do the same

Romania elected a centrist president in a major surprise after an intense campaign in which voters looked likely to propel another hard-right populist to lead a large European country.

Despite repeated diplomatic overtures, EU efforts to frame the conflict as a clear-cut violation of international law have often fallen flat.
