Assessment of the Aid Measures Agreed Between Israel-EU

On July 10, 2025, EU High Representative Kaja Kallas reported that, against the backdrop of an ever-deteriorating humanitarian catastrophe in the Gaza Strip caused by Israeli bombardments and severe restrictions on aid, the EU and Israel reached an agreement comprising a set of steps to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza. This document assesses Israel’s implementation of these terms.

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.

Field Update on Israel-Palestine (July 2025)

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.

EU-Israel Association Council Statement: An Assessment of Israel’s Compliance with EU Calls and Concerns

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.

Year 57 : A Joint Situation Report

This joint annual report aims to present a comprehensive picture of the consequences of the occupation and of Israel's policy in four geographical parts: the humanitarian disaster in the Gaza Strip and the suspected war crimes committed by Israel; the deepening of the annexation and the acceleration of dispossession in the West Bank; the increased Israelisation efforts and displacement of the Palestinian population in East Jerusalem; and the accelerated erosion of democratic space in Israel.
