EU chief slams Israel's 'abhorrent' strikes on Gaza civilian sites

EU chief Ursula von der Leyen denounced as "abhorrent" Israel's deadly wave of strikes on civilian facilities in Gaza including a school-turned-shelter, during a call with Jordan's King Abdullah II on Tuesday.

"The expansion of Israel's military operations in Gaza targeting civilian infrastructure, among them a school that served as a shelter for displaced Palestinian families, killing civilians, including children, is abhorrent," von der Leyen said, according to a European Commission readout of the call.
