On Thursday, 61 Members of the European Parliament called on the European Union leadership to make stronger calls for foreign journalist access to Gaza.
The letter, addressed to Ursula von der Leyen, president of the European Commission, Kaja Kallas, high representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, as well as EU member states, says that security can no longer be invoked by Israel as justification to deny access.
