Hey fam! Big news from Brussels! 🌍
On Friday, the foreign ministers of six EU members – Iceland, Ireland, Luxembourg, Norway, Slovenia and Spain – slammed Israel's latest offensive (aka major military action) in the Gaza Strip and its surprise announcement to establish a permanent presence in Gaza City. 👀
In their joint statement, they warned that a long-term military footprint risks escalating tensions and making peace even tougher to reach. 🕊️
Why it matters for us? Whether you're scrolling through TikTok in Mumbai or catching up on Twitter in Manila, global stability vibes back home – conflicts far away can impact everything from tech supply chains to our collective peace of mind. Plus, this stand shows how alliances can rally around human rights on the world stage. 📲✨
What's next? The EU will keep this on the agenda at their next council meeting. Stay tuned for updates, and let's hope cooler heads prevail! 🤞
