LONDON (AP) — The Israeli military's killing of seven aid workers in Gaza has sparked strong criticism from European leaders, with some halting arms sales to Israel as the conflict escalates. The attack on the World Central Kitchen convoy has intensified the dilemma for European politicians, torn between supporting an ally and responding to public pressure to end the war.
European leaders have expressed shock and outrage at the incident, with calls for a cease-fire growing louder. The French Foreign Minister condemned the attack, while the U.K. Prime Minister expressed being appalled by the deaths of three British aid workers. Several European countries, including Britain and Poland, summoned the Israeli ambassador to reprimand Israel over the killings.
