"As far as I know, the Commission has not yet responded to countries that have asked the EU executive to examine Israel's respect for human rights, a condition stipulated in the EU-Israel Association Agreement," EU Foreign Affairs Commissioner Josep Borrell said on the sidelines of the Foreign Affairs Council in Luxembourg on Monday.

"Ireland and Spain asked the Commission in mid-February to examine whether Israel is respecting its obligations to respect human rights stipulated in the EU-Israel Association Agreement," Borrell said.

The EU High Representative said: "We ask Israel by all possible means not to attack Rafah, where more than one million civilians have taken refuge," who "will be slaughtered if the attack takes place."
