EU divisions on Gaza risk weakening it on the foreign policy stage
The EU was late to clarify that Israel had an obligation to minimise casualties while the country was bombing and cutting off fuel, water and medical supplies to a civilian population.
Reports emerged that a National Emergency will soon be declared in Germany to tackle the issue of illegal immigration. The German government has denied reports claiming Chancellor Friedrich Merz declared a national emergency to tighten border controls. Officials confirmed that Article 72 of the EU Treaty has not been triggered, despite media speculation. Interior Minister Dobrindt did announce stricter border checks and increased migrant rejections, sparking criticism from EU neighbors and legal experts.

A ballistic missile launched by Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen was intercepted over central Israel by air defenses. Sirens and early warnings alerted civilians as Ben Gurion Airport briefly shut down. The attack comes despite a US-Houthi truce, with Houthis vowing continued strikes until Israel ends its Gaza offensive. No injuries or damage were reported.

The Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) launched major attacks on Israeli and U.S. targets, including the USS Truman and Israelās Ramon Airport, in retaliation for the war in Gaza. This comes after Donald Trump claimed the Houthis ābeggedā him not to strike. The YAF's bold military move, involving drones and ballistic missiles, defies that narrative. An American F-18 crashed during the operation, intensifying the crisis. YAF has vowed further strikes if U.S. aggression resumes. Yemen warns Israel that air and maritime movements will remain under fire until the Gaza siege ends.
