Brussels – The European Commission will allocate<\/a> additional \u20ac30 million for humanitarian aid in Lebanon<\/strong>, adding to the 10 million already announced on September 29. According to data from the International Organization for Migration (IOM<\/a>), there are already more than 130,000 new internally displaced persons<\/strong> as a result of Israeli shelling over the past week. As of October 2023, about 350 thousand 35 per cent of them are children.<\/p>\n

In September 2024 alone, the casualties caused by Israel’s raids would already be more than 1,000\u00a0and over 8,000 injured. The EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs, Josep Borrell<\/strong>, condemned the killing last night of seven people in central Beirut, including paramedics. “Israeli Defense Forces again targeted health workers<\/strong> overnight,” denounced the EU diplomacy chief. In “violation of international humanitarian law.”<\/p>\n

According to WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, twenty-eight health workers have been killed<\/strong> in Lebanon in the past 24 hours. Emergency packages allocated by the EU\u2014which in\u00a02024 totalled \u20ac104 million\u2014are intended to provide “urgent food assistance, shelter and health care<\/strong>, as well as other essential aid.” Lebanon has also requested activation of the EU Civil Protection Mechanism, through which the Commission is facilitating the delivery of additional assistance from member countries. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said she was “extremely concerned <\/strong>about the continued escalation of tensions in the Middle East.”<\/p>\n

Tel Aviv breaks up\u00a0with UN: Guterres “not worthy” of entering\u00a0Israel<\/h3>\n

Meanwhile, the Jewish state declared UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres “persona non grata.”<\/strong> “An Israel-hating secretary-general who gives support to terrorists, rapists, and murderers. Guterres will be remembered as a stain in the history of the United Nations,” this is the grave accusation of Israel’s foreign minister, Israel Katz<\/strong>, against the UN secretary,\u00a0guilty, according to Israel, for failing to “unequivocally condemn Iran’s criminal attack<\/a> against Israel.” Guterres will no longer be allowed to set foot on Israeli soil.<\/p>\n

Another harsh tear\u2014the umpteenth since October 7\u2014from Tel Aviv toward the international community. Borrell immediately rushed\u00a0to support Guterres: “We support the Secretary-General of the United Nations\u00a0<\/strong>in his tireless efforts to achieve peace in all conflicts, particularly<\/span>\u00a0in the Middle East. We deplore the unjustified attacks against him<\/strong> as well as the unacceptable number of casualties among UN aid workers,” he commented in a post<\/a> on X.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
