Western Nations Impose New Sanctions on West Bank Settler Networks
Britain, Canada, France, and Norway announced a coordinated package of sanctions on June 10, 2026, targeting financial networks that support extremist Israeli settler violence in the West Bank. The sanctions freeze assets and impose travel bans on several organizations accused of displacing Palestinian communities and destroying agricultural land. This move follows a U.N. report detailing a 130% increase in settler-led attacks since 2023 and calls for an immediate halt to unlawful annexations.
