The EU's top foreign policy official Josep Borrell calls for an extension of the truce in the Gaza Strip, which is due to end on Tuesday. "The pause should be extended to make it sustainable and long lasting while working for a political solution," he says on Monday, at the start of a meeting of the Union for the Mediterranean in Barcelona.
