I underlined the importance of the EU-Israel Association Council, which should take place soon. We also discussed the continued threat from Hamas and Iran, various urgent consular matters and the necessity that hostages are released as soon as possible. 2/2

Just spoke on the phone with @Israel_katz to make clear that Israel must respect and comply with the @CIJ_ICJ order. 1/2

NL shares the EU’s concerns regarding the arrests of civil society members, journalists, and political actors in #Tunisia. Our partnership is based on binding human rights conventions that both our countries have ratified. Freedom of expression and association must be protected.

I am deeply worried about developments in Gaza. Continued suffering, media restrictions, looming famine and the death of @WCKitchen aid workers are of utmost concern. Aid workers and journalists are indispensable and must be protected like all innocent civilians. 1/3

Good to meet with my Saudi colleague @FaisalbinFarhan in #AlUla and to reaffirm the strong and historic ties between our countries. We spoke at length about the latest developments in Israel and the Palestinian Territories, as well as in the wider region. 1/4

Recent remarks by Israeli ministers Smotrich and Ben-Gvir regarding Palestinian resettlement from Gaza are irresponsible. The Netherlands rejects any calls for Palestinian displacement from Gaza or reduction of Palestinian territory. 1/2

After a pause in hostilities, we are sadly witnessing another surge in violence in Gaza leading to more human suffering. NL calls for military restraint and urges new pauses in hostilities to be agreed upon soon, so that sufficient aid can enter and more people can be released.

Today I am visiting Israel and the Palestinian Territories, where I will have several meetings. I will be talking to various ministers and organisations and will also be visiting the Dutch representations here.

De humanitaire crisis in #Gaza verslechtert snel. Nederland stelt daarom €15 mln extra beschikbaar voor voedsel, water en medische zorg aan de bevolking in Gaza. Het kabinet blijft aandringen op humanitaire pauzes, zodat de hulp de mensen in Gaza zo snel mogelijk kan bereiken.

Zeer verdrietig om te vernemen dat een 33-jarige Nederlandse vrouw in Gaza is omgekomen. Mijn gedachten zijn bij haar familieleden en andere naasten in deze afschuwelijke tijd. 1/2

I also stressed the deeply concerning humanitarian situation in Gaza and the importance of humanitarian access. I emphasised that when Israel exercises its right to self-defense, it must act in accordance with international humanitarian law. 2/2

Just spoke with Israeli Foreign Minister @elicoh1. I expressed my condolences for the victims of the terrorist attacks by Hamas. We are shocked by the stories of innocent civilians and stand in solidarity with Israel. Our thoughts are with the hostages and their families. 1/2

Spoke with my Egyptian colleague Shoukry. We shared our concerns about developments in Israel and Gaza and emphasized that it is crucial that humanitarian aid reaches innocent civilians in Gaza.

Just participated in an emergency meeting with @JosepBorrellF and EU Foreign Ministers regarding the terrible violence in Israel and the Palestinian Territories. We jointly condemned Hamas’ terrorist attacks in the strongest terms. Civilians must never be a target.
