  "account": "The European Union has expressed deep concern over the deteriorating humanitarian situation in Gaza, urging Israel to reopen all border crossings for aid. The EU has highlighted the worsening conditions caused by heavy flooding and harsh winter weather, which have exacerbated the plight of residents already grappling with the crisis and facing dangerous circumstances. In a statement, the EU emphasized the importance of adhering to international law, including humanitarian law, and protecting civilians, civilian infrastructure, medical personnel, and health facilities. Distressed by the recent Israeli airstrike on Nasser Hospital, the EU demanded Israel to promptly permit the entry and continuous distribution of humanitarian aid, providing essential support for immediate recovery efforts, and opening all border crossings into Gaza. The EU stressed the necessity for UN agencies, humanitarian organizations, and NGOs to carry out their work and fulfill all obligations under international law. The EU reaffirmed its dedication to a two-state solution, urging all parties to promptly implement UN Security Council Resolution 2803, in accordance with relevant Security Council resolutions and international legal principles, and for the complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza and the completion of the civilian transitional phase in the territory.",
