The European Union (EU) described the "Israeli" forced siege on Gaza as a politically incorrect act, where it called upon "Israeli" authorities to immediately end the siege.

In a statement issued on Monday, The EU Foreign Affairs Committee said, "The continued policy of closure is unacceptable and politically counterproductive".

The statement also read, "In line with UN Security Council Resolution 1860, the EU reiterates its call for an immediate, sustained and unconditional opening of crossings for the flow of humanitarian aid, commercial goods and persons to and from Gaza including goods from the West Bank".

For almost three years so far, the "Israeli" enemy has been forcing a severe blockade on the people of Gaza, depriving them of necessity life needs.

Not only did it get enough from starving Gazans to death, "Israel" also conducted the 2008-2009 brutal war on Gaza, causing the death of almost 1,400 civilians.

International communities and activists have been trying to break the siege, through the Freedom Flotilla humanitarian ship convoy to Gaza earlier last month, which was brutally attacked by the "Israeli" navy while still in international waters.

The brutal attack caused in the death of 9 Turkish activists, and injured around 60 others.
