The European Union has agreed to review its trade agreement with Israel over alleged human rights abuses in Gaza,the EU’s top diplomat, Kaja Kallas, said on Tuesday.

Axar.az informs according to the Guardian, the decision comes almost 15 months after Irish and Spanish leaders called on the European Commission’s chief, Ursula von der Leyen, to make such a move.

The change comes after a proposal from the Netherlands last week gained widespread support amid growing alarm about the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza and the West Bank.

Notably, the U.K. suspended free trade talks with Israel on Tuesday and hit West Bank settlers with sanctions.
