Artificial island off Gaza pitched by Israeli minister in EU meeting is 'irrelevant', Borrell says
Israel’s foreign minister Israel Katz has sparked controversy after using a high-stakes meeting of EU foreign ministers to promote a plan to build an artificial island off the Gazan coast.
Ireland, Norway, and Spain have made significant diplomatic moves amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict in Gaza, announcing their formal recognition of Palestine as a state. This decision has prompted swift reactions from Israel, which has recalled its ambassadors from Ireland and Norway in response. Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz delivered a firm warning to Ireland and Norway, emphasising Israel's stance on sovereignty and security. He also cautioned Spain against following suit, indicating potential repercussions for similar actions.
