EU accused of dragging its feet over ban on trade with illegal Israeli settlements

The News

The EU has been accused of delaying a ban on trade with illegal Israeli settlements. Foreign ministers are meeting to discuss the issue, but a decision is months away. The debate occurs amid a humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where a UN inquiry found Israel committing genocide, and increasing violence in the West Bank that has killed at least 235 children.
