The EU needs to take action immediately. Talk is insufficient. The EU project values are in peril. The EU population surely can not accept a man-made famine

Israel's endgame is clear: the ethnic cleansing of the Gaza Strip and the expulsion of its population. It is not an immediate goal, and Israel uses different levels of violence depending on the situation. And yet the physical destruction of the Strip leaves no other outcome.

The UN’s satellite centre (Unosat) has published its most recent assessment of damage in Gaza: around 78% of buildings there were damaged or destroyed by Israel by July this year. More than 40% completely destroyed. Here's an example of what that looks like in Abasan al-Kabira in the south.
