- The EU's top diplomat highlighted that most member states support reassessing trade relations with Israel, while Pope Leo XIV urged for adequate humanitarian aid access to alleviate the crisis in Gaza.
- Despite limited aid access easing some shortages, Gaza remains in dire condition as Israel pursues its military campaign and international pressure mounts for greater humanitarian relief.
