European Union Foreign Policy Chief, Catherine Ashton, lashed out at "Israel" for failing to ease the blockade on the Gaza Strip.

Ashton stated that despite "Israeli" vows to the International community, the Gaza Strip remains under strict siege and closure.


"Gaza remains a source of great concern for me...at the present time, we think that what's is happening is unsatisfactory, the volume of goods allowed into Gaza is not increasing to the urgently needed level," Ashton stated while speaking on behalf of all EU Foreign Ministers.

Ashton also urged "Israel" to allow exports out of Gaza and to allow construction materials into
the coastal region, and added that the United Nations Refugees & Works Agency (UNRWA) needs construction materials to rebuild schools, bombarded by "Israel" during the war. She pointed out that the economy needs to be allowed to recover, and the people must be allowed to invest in their future.
