Foreign ministers of Ireland, Norway, and Spain held on Monday a joint press conference in Brussels to address Israel's latest attacks on Rafah that killed tens of people.

"I think all three of us have for months been saying that we're worried that the Israeli style of warfare in Gaza has been in breach of international humanitarian law. Now we know," Norwegian Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide underlined. His Irish counterpart, Micheal Martin, added that the last night's strike on Rafah was "barbaric," stressing that such a "small enclave" cannot be bombed like that "without shocking consequences."

Meanwhile, Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares remarked that he will ask other European Union members to "declare the backing of the International Court of Justice and its decision." Earlier, the three countries decided to recognize Palestine as a state.
