<p>BRUSSELS (Reuters) -Leaders from the European Union's 27 member countries called on Thursday for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and said discussions would continue on a report on Israel's compliance with the terms of an agreement with the bloc.</p>
<p>"The European Council calls for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and the unconditional release of all hostages, leading to a permanent end to hostilities," the leaders said in written conclusions after a discussion on the Middle East in Brussels.</p>
<p>The EU's diplomatic service said last week there were indications that Israel had breached its human rights obligations under the terms of a pact governing its ties with the bloc.</p>
<p>"The European Council takes note of the report on Israel's compliance with Article 2 of the EU-Israel Association Agreement and invites the Council to continue discussions on a follow-up, as appropriate, in July 2025, taking into account the evolution of the situation on the ground," the leaders wrote</p>
