The liberal Israeli daily Haaretz made this clear in a headline this week: 'A diplomatic tsunami is coming.' The media outlet is essentially warning with this headline. Because Europe has begun to take action against Israel's 'ultimate madness' in Gaza.

This week has seen a variety of diplomatic attacks, not all of which could have been anticipated.

The country has had a turbulent week, from international condemnation of Israeli actions in Gaza to the murder of two young Israeli embassy workers in Washington.

The wave of attacks began to hit Israel's shores on Monday evening, after the UK, France and Canada issued a joint statement condemning Israel's "horrific" actions in Gaza.

The three countries have warned that they could take "more severe measures" if Israel continues its military campaign and does not lift restrictions on humanitarian aid. They have also threatened to impose "specific sanctions" in response to settlement activity in the occupied West Bank.

Then came a statement from 24 donor countries, condemning the new Israeli-backed aid delivery system for Gaza.
But this was just the beginning.

The following day, Tuesday, the UK suspended trade talks with Israel and said it was reassessing the roadmap for future cooperation beyond 2023.
Meanwhile, new restrictions were imposed on Jewish settlers. Daniela Weiss, a well-known figure from the West Bank, was also subject to the ban. She was featured in the documentary The Settlers, directed by Louis Theroux.

The Israeli ambassador to London, Tzipi Hotovely, has been summoned to the UK Foreign Office - a move typically taken against representatives of countries such as Russia or Iran.

Making matters even more difficult for Israel, European Union (EU) foreign policy chief Kaia Kallas said that a majority of EU member states are in favor of reviewing the 25-year-old cooperation agreement with Israel.
