The United Kingdom has imposed sanctions on 'extremist Israeli settlers' in the Occupied West Bank, responding to a surge in violence against Palestinians.
Foreign Secretary David Lammy criticized the Israeli government for their inaction allowing an environment of impunity to flourish, leading to increased settler violence.
Lammy emphasized that the latest UK measures will help bring accountability for human rights abuses, insisting that violent extremists must not remain unaccountable.
During his visit to the West Bank, Lammy encountered Palestinians who faced horrific violence and highlighted the targeting of schools and families by extremists.
