Israel: activists demand EU in Jerusalem, denounce 'complicit silence' in Gaza

Euronews Portugal28 August 2026 at 16:33

Around a dozen Israeli activists gathered on August 28 in front of the European Union offices in East Jerusalem, calling for a firmer position on the war in Gaza. The activists demanded that the EU take stronger measures regarding the conflict.

During the protest, participants denounced what they classified as "complicit silence" of the European Union regarding the situation in Gaza. The demonstration aimed to pressure European authorities to adopt a more active stance in the face of the conflict.

This protest comes in a context of ongoing tensions in the region, with activists calling for the international community, and specifically the EU, to take a more interventionist role in resolving the conflict.
