EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said that EU member states have collectively agreed on a common stance regarding the burgeoning war in Gaza, favoring "immediate pauses" to allow for the opening of humanitarian corridors. 

"In this 27 [EU nations] statement we ask for immediate pauses. I am saying that in plural, not a singular one but several [sic] pauses. These immediate pauses and humanitarian corridors are to be established in order to face the dire situation of the people in Gaza," Borrell added.
