Israel has tightened the blockade of Gaza, cutting off the supply of water, electricity, food and fuel, adding to the hardships of the already restricted Gaza residents.
The United Nations has described the complete blockade of Gaza as a violation of international law and has said that the blockade will endanger the survival of citizens. The United Nations has called for humanitarian corridors in and out of Gaza.
European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell accused the Israeli government on Tuesday of breaking international law by imposing a total blockade of Gaza in response to the attack by Palestinian militant group Hamas on Israel.
After an emergency meeting to discuss the repercussions of the attack, Borrell also said an "overwhelming majority" of EU foreign ministers supported continuing aid payments for the Palestinian Authority, which governs the West Bank.
