Israel has condemned the EU's outgoing envoy to the Palestinians after he paraglided over Gaza's coast to draw attention to the blockade of the strip.
A video showed Sven Kühn von Burgsdorff declaring he had carried out "the first Gaza paragliding flight in history".
"Once you have a free Palestine, a free Gaza, you can do exactly the same thing," the German diplomat adds.
Israel's foreign ministry said it was a "provocative action" that served as propaganda for militant groups in Gaza.
"The European diplomat forgot a long time ago that he represents the European Union and its member states," a spokesperson said in a statement.
