EU preparing sanctions against Israeli government members

EU will consider sanctions against members of the Israeli government following attacks by Israeli settlers on Palestinians in West Bank, EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell said in a post on X, according to Report.

"We condemn settlers attacks in Jit, aimed at terrorising Palestinian civilians. Day after day, in an almost total impunity, Israeli settlers fuel violence in the occupied West Bank, contributing to endanger any chance of peace.The Israeli government must stop these unacceptable actions immediately... I confirm my intention to table a proposal for EU sanctions against violent settlers’ enablers, including some Israeli government’s members," Borrell wrote.
