Israel immediately rejected the findings as "hostile, deceitful and biased."

Many European countries, including Belgium, shuttered their frontiers this spring in a bid to stop the coronavirus from spilling onto their territories when it arrived on the Continent — an approach the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) later said was ineffective. Now petitioners from Ostbelgien — a small German-speaking area that Germany ceded after World War I — want the EU to rethink its Schengen open border rules to make sure another health emergency doesn’t spark a new wave of frontier restrictions. “My…
