Britain Set to Announce Sanctions on Israel, Including West Bank Products
Britain is expected to announce a series of sanctions against Israel on Tuesday, unless there is a last-minute change, according to a source familiar with the matter who spoke to i24NEWS on Monday evening. The sanctions are anticipated to include measures targeting products from Judea and Samaria.
The British government is reportedly investigating donors to Haredi institutions beyond the Green Line, a move that follows the UK's recognition of a Palestinian state. This potential economic blow comes as the UK considers actions against Israeli entities.
According to The Times of London, British Prime Minister Andy Burnham informed U.S. President Donald Trump of the impending steps during a phone call on Monday. The White House is expected to criticize the decision. This development follows a report last month in The Times that President Trump had previously threatened Prime Minister Burnham against imposing sanctions on Israel, warning it could trigger a trade war if measures were taken against Judea and Samaria or its products.
