The European Union on Saturday joined a call from United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan for an immediate end to the operations, which France has branded "acts of war."
The U.N. human rights chief, Mary Robinson, said on Friday that the raids on the U.N.-run camps, home to 32,000 Palestinians, flouted international humanitarian law.
The United States, Israel's foremost ally, has urged "utmost restraint" but stopped short of calling on Israel to withdraw it forces, saying it respects its right to self-defense.
