The UK, in coordination with Canada, France, and Norway, imposed sanctions on six entities and one individual under its global human rights sanctions framework on June 9, 2026. The sanctions target organizations and individuals enabling and financing Israeli settler violence in the West Bank. According to Cryptobriefing.com, the coordinated sanctions represent a shift from targeting individuals to targeting organizational infrastructure that funds and facilitates the violence. The UK government issued updated advice to British firms not to engage in economic activity with illegal settlements, but did not impose a trade ban, according to the Guardian. Dawn reported that a UN inquiry found that Israeli authorities enabled settler attacks through financial and military support. Cryptobriefing.com reported that Australia and New Zealand were also involved in the coordinated sanctions, though this is not corroborated by other sources. Diplomats say settler violence is intended to undermine prospects for a Palestinian state.
