- Netanyahu seems unstoppable despite the indiscriminate attacks of the Israeli army on Gaza and the consequent international condemnation.
- Rafah could become the new scene of tragedy if the announced military offensive is carried out, as its inhabitants have nowhere to flee.
- Possible consequences of the military action could include threatening peace with Israel, the mass exodus of Palestinians to Egypt and US sanctions.
- There are signs of discontent with Netanyahu's government even in countries that have traditionally supported him.
- Spain and Ireland have requested a review of the EU's association agreement with Israel due to potential violations of international law, which could lead to the suspension of the agreement.
Conclusion: The Spanish-Irish proposal represents a significant shift in international criticisms of the Israeli army's actions and proposes a concrete measure to stop the massacre in Gaza.
