00:00 Let's hear a little of what EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen had to say
00:03 after that statement was released late on Thursday.
00:06 Leaders emphasised that the siege must stop
00:13 and that it is of utmost importance that the Palestinian people
00:18 and the hostages and all those who are in Gaza
00:22 have access to humanitarian aid.
00:26 There is no contradiction between showing solidarity to Israel
00:31 and of course acting on the need of humanitarian aid for the people of Gaza.
