BRUSSELS — A top European Union official described Israel’s actions in Gaza as a genocide, the strongest condemnation yet to come out of Brussels.

Teresa Ribera, the European Commission’s executive vice president, also said Europe was too divided to do anything about it.

“The genocide in Gaza exposes Europe’s failure to act and speak with one voice, even as protests spread across European cities and 14 U.N. Security Council members call for an immediate ceasefire,” Ribera told students at Sciences Po in a speech Thursday morning.
