European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas has said that Israel’s ground offensive in Gaza will worsen the situation in the enclave, Reuters reports.

“Israel’s ground offensive in Gaza will make an already desperate situation even worse,” Kallas wrote on social media platform X.

“It will mean more death, more destruction & more displacement,” she said, noting that the European Commission will present measures on Wednesday to pressure the Israeli government to change course.
