Europe

Reporting from Brussels, FRANCE 24’s Dave Keating says the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is dominating the agenda at the EU foreign ministers meeting Monday. The big question is whether the 27-member bloc can agree on a call for a humanitarian ceasefire. But the EU has long been split on the Israeli-Palestinian issue.

Belgian Justice Minister Vincent van Quickenborne said on Friday he has decided to step down, following pressure over how Belgium had handled the case of a Tunisian gunman who had pledged allegiance to Islamic State and killed two people in Brussels this week.
