“Israel has a right to self-defence, but it has to be done within international law … cutting water, cutting electricity, cutting food to a mass of civilian people is against international law,” said EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell on Tuesday (10 October).

He repeated the view more than once in his press briefing. “The Palestinian people are also suffering,” he added.

An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind. This cycle of violence and repression needs to stop.

The UN and EU consider lots of things Israel does illegal. We just don’t do anything about it and they don’t care.
