European Commission president Usrula von der Leyen is due to travel to Cyprus later this week as the bloc is working towards establishing a possible humanitarian corridor in support of the population in Gaza through the Mediterranean island, her spokesperson said.
“Our efforts are focussed on making sure that we can provide aid to Palestinians”, the spokesperson said during a briefing with journalists, Reuters reports.
“We all hope that this opening (of the corridor) will take place very soon,” the spokesperson added.
