The European Union (EU) on Monday reiterated its rejection of the Israeli attack on Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip, in light of the occupations demand that residents evacuate the eastern areas of the city in preparation for its invasion, amid its continued aggression against the Strip since October 7, 2023.
The EU Foreign Policy Chief Josep Borrell said on the X platform that the evacuation order portends more war and famine, and that this was unacceptable, stressing that Israel must abandon the ground attack in Rafah.
The Israeli occupation had warned residents of areas east of Rafah in the far south of the Gaza Strip to immediately evacuate and head towards the center of the Strip, in light of the threat of launching a ground attack on the densely populated city.
