"Borrell wants to receive the Nobel Peace Prize at the expense of Israel's security". "As in recent weeks, once again Josep Borrell does not speak on behalf of the common position of the European Union (EU) but rather a personal anti-Israeli position," Israeli diplomatic sources denounce.

Borrell asked the U.S. and other countries not to deliver more weapons to Israel due to the high number of deaths in the military offensive in the Gaza Strip. Israel is determined to their mission to dismantle Hamas.
