A new sanctions package is ready. We will adopt it in Brussels on Tuesday.

HRW : Le projet d' #israel pour «détruire» Gaza
Les ministres du gouvernement israélien ne pourraient pas être plus clairs. Ils affirment qu'Israël va «enfin conquérir la bande de Gaza». Ils menacent de «détruire complètement» #Gaza et affirment que sa population palestinienne «partira en masse vers des pays tiers». Ces actions constituent des crimes de guerre, des crimes contre l'humanité, notamment l'extermination et des actes de génocide. hrw.org/fr/news/2025/05/15/le-…

The Canal at ’s-Graveland, Pieter Gerardus van Os, 1818
In 1817 the Amsterdam merchant Herman Waller com-missioned Van Os to paint two prospects of the village of ’s-Graveland, where Waller had a country house. Van Os painted this scene either from a window in Waller’s house or from the local inn. This high vantage point afforded an unusual perspective. The diagonal view of the ’s-Graveland canal also includes the garden, with a gardener and two dogs.
Gift of F.G. Waller, Amsterdam
