Israel faces Gaza death probes and EU settlement sanctions

Israeli military investigators have opened 57 cases into civilian deaths in Gaza, none of which have led to indictments.

Within the European Union, nine member states have called for the Olympic Games to be defunded until Russia’s involvement in Ukraine is resolved, while the EU has struggled to agree on concrete sanctions against Israeli settlement activities. In parallel, Hungary’s parliament voted to remove the president appointed by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, marking a rare shift in the country’s political landscape.
