Six countries have jointly imposed new sanctions on Israeli settlers and settlements in the West Bank, targeting hard-line officials and violent settlers. - Australia, UK, Canada, France, Norway, and New Zealand announced the measures.
- France barred Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and 25 others from entering the country. - The UK sanctioned six entities and individuals involved in financing settlements or violent acts.
- Israel condemned the sanctions as disgraceful and counterproductive. The sanctions aim to pressure Israel over settler violence and settlement expansion, which the international community considers illegal.
