As the EU threatens to review ties with Israel, the UK puts off trade talks.
Some of Israel’s most powerful allies are praising the country’s continued aggression in Gaza.
Both the UK and the EU are reviewing old agreements, and both are imposing sanctions on Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank.
The two countries say they can’t stand by while Israel expands its military and airstrikes and starves Palestinians in Gaza of its total blockade.
However, critics are asking why they didn’t intervene earlier.
Will new regulations be implemented?
Will any of this affect the Palestinians’ perception of reality on the ground?
