Josep Borrell: Israel ethnic cleansing Gaza for 'holiday destination'
- Josep Borrell, former EU foreign policy chief, accused Israel on May 10, 2025, of ethnically cleansing Gaza to turn it into a holiday destination during an award ceremony in southwestern Spain.
- Borrell attributed this campaign to Israel’s war on Gaza, which began in October 2023 and involved explosive force exceeding three times that of Hiroshima.

- Borrell stated that rarely does one hear a head of state articulate a strategy that meets the criteria of genocide, referencing both the genocidal language used by Israeli officials and the death toll of over 50,000 Palestinians.
- He urged Europe to reduce arms supplies and demand respect for international law, criticizing the EU’s failure to influence Israel amid this humanitarian crisis.
