- EU foreign ministers met in Brussels to consider measures including suspending the EU-Israel Association Agreement, which grants Israel preferential trade access and covers human rights obligations.
- Colombian Vice Minister Mauricio Jaramillo said the Bogota meeting of 30 countries, including Qatar and Turkey, will discuss diplomatic and judicial measures to pressure Israel to cease attacks, while some experts question their leverage.
