Caabu, Action for Humanity and FairSquare hold major Parliamentary reception on Gaza

Sanctions on Israeli Settlers and Israeli Settler Groups

Since the inauguration of Donald Trump to the US presidency, all settler sanctions imposed by Biden have been rescinded. It is therefore more important than ever that the UK and EU continue to take action on the matter of settler violence in the occupied West Bank. 

The UK needs to do much more in terms of sanctioning illegal Israeli settlers and settler groups. 

Initially, the UK was behind the US and the EU on individuals and organisations responsible for violent attacks on Palestinians, theft of Palestinian land and settlement expansion.
