Can Europe change the course of Israel’s war in the Gaza Strip? | Israel-Palestine conflict

A Dutch advisory body says European countries should do more to prevent a bigger conflict.

European countries are under pressure to become more involved in the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

Almost all EU countries showed unequivocal support for Israel after the Hamas-led attack on October 7.

However, as the relentless attacks on Gaza continue, many people have begun to change, with some even going so far as to impose an arms embargo on Israel.

The Dutch government was criticized from within for not doing enough in response to the conflict and was urged to join other European countries to stop the conflict from spreading.

How could this idea become a reality?
