Israeli minister's conduct 'unbecoming of anyone holding office,' EU's Kallas says 

​European ​Union foreign policy ‌chief Kaja ​Kallas criticised Israel's far-right ‌police minister Itamar Ben-Gvir on Wednesday, after Israeli police forced activists who ‌were aboard a Gaza-bound ‌aid flotilla to kneel on the ground in rows with their ⁠hands ​tied ⁠behind their backs as the minister ⁠looked on.

"The treatment of the ​Global Sumud flotilla activists, amongst ⁠them EU citizens, was degrading ⁠and ​wrong," Kallas said in a statement.

"Israeli Minister Ben-Gvir's ⁠conduct is unbecoming of anyone holding ⁠office ⁠in a democracy," she added.
