Statement by Israel-based Human Rights Organisations on the Obstruction of the Humanitarian Response to Gaza
Statement by Israel-based Human Rights Organisations on the Obstruction of the Humanitarian Response to Gaza
Statement by Israel-based human rights organisations to unequivocally condemn the current Israeli government’s attempts to restrict and disrupt the life-saving work of international humanitarian organisations in Gaza at a time when every effort should be devoted to removing, not creating, obstacles to the humanitarian response.

Joint Letter by Israeli HR Organizations on Israel's Breach of Human Rights Committments under the EU-Israel Association Agreement
Ahead of the 15 July Foreign Affairs Council, where EU Foreign Ministers are expected to discuss responses to the EU's internal review that found Israel in breach of human rights principles under the EU-Israel Association Agreement, Israeli civil society urges the EU and its Member States not to limit their focus to humanitarian access alone, but to address the full range of human rights and humanitarian law violations, both in Gaza and in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem. Restricting the EU’s review solely to humanitarian access risks sending a dangerous message: that all the other serious and urgent violations of international law will be tolerated, allowing them to continue unchecked.

This briefing calls on the international community to resume, intensify, and expand its engagement beyond the immediate humanitarian crisis in Gaza. It does so by demonstrating that the Israeli government’s actions are driven by a long-term religious-nationalist project aimed at expanding Israeli sovereignty across all Palestinian territories in pursuit of the messianic vision of a “Greater Israel.”
As part of this agenda, the Israeli government is also systematically dismantling internal checks and balances to suppress criticism and remove legal constraints. Without meaningful action, this trajectory risks to proceed unchecked, with profound consequences not only for Palestinian rights but also for the future of the Israeli democracy and the broader stability in the region.

On 24 February 2025, the European Union and Israel convened the thirteenth meeting of their Association Council, during which the EU articulated a series of key concerns and expectations, agreed upon by all 27 member states, regarding the situation in the region and the state of EU–Israel relations.
The Platform has assessed Israel’s actions between 24 February and 12 May 2025 in response to thirteen of these EU appeals. Our findings indicate a consistent and deliberate disregard by Israel for the EU's positions.
The gap between the EU’s expressed principles and Israel’s conduct has become increasingly difficult to reconcile. Israel continues to benefit from the privileges of its relationship with the EU while systematically violating the conditions that underpin it—particularly the commitment to human rights enshrined in Article 2 of the Association Agreement.
