EU condemns Hamas use of ‘hospitals as human shields’
The European Union on Sunday condemned Hamas for using “hospitals and civilians as human shields.”
In the same statement, the EU called on Israel to exercise “maximum restraint” when operating in civilian areas.
"The EU condemns the use of hospitals and civilians as human shields by Hamas," EU Foreign Policy Chief Josep Borrell said in a statement on Sunday.
Borrell also said the war effort was “severely impacting” hospitals' ability to provide treatment for civilians.
"These hostilities are severely impacting hospitals and taking a horrific toll on civilians and medical staff," Borrell said. "In this context, we urge Israel to exercise maximum restraint to ensure the protection of civilians."
