The European Commission has proposed partially suspending Israel's participation in the prestigious Horizon Europe research program, citing the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza. This marks the first time the EU has considered such sanctions against Israel, specifically targeting funding for Israeli tech start-ups and military-related research. The proposal comes amid mounting European frustration over Israel's handling of aid to Gaza and ongoing conflict, with some EU countries also imposing diplomatic measures like travel bans on Israeli ministers. Israel has condemned the move as unjustified and counterproductive, warning it could harm efforts to reach a ceasefire. The proposal still requires approval from a qualified majority of EU member states before it can take effect.
