Speaking to reporters ahead of the meeting, Kallas said the ministers will also discuss the current situation in the Gaza Strip following the ceasefire that came into effect on October 10.
She added, "The situation has certainly changed in light of developments over the past week, and the real question is what the foreign ministers will decide regarding the proposed sanctions on Israel."
The European Commission ended its nearly two-year silence on Israel's actions in Gaza, announcing on September 10 a package of proposals to impose sanctions on Tel Aviv.
The proposals include restrictions on the free movement of goods under the EU-Israel Association Agreement, additional customs duties, and sanctions targeting Israeli figures, including Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, for their involvement in settlement activity in the occupied West Bank.
The ceasefire agreement went into effect on October 10, according to a plan proposed by US President Donald Trump. It includes a cessation of military operations, a gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Gaza Strip, a mutual release of prisoners, and immediate access for humanitarian aid into the Strip.
The agreement ended a two-year war that resulted in the deaths of more than 68,000 Palestinians, the injury of approximately 170,000, and the destruction of most of the infrastructure in the Gaza Strip.
Despite the agreement, the Gaza government said Sunday that 97 Palestinians were killed and 230 injured as a result of 80 violations committed by the Israeli occupation army since the ceasefire was announced on the Gaza Strip.
