US EditionUK ready to sanction top Israelis over ‘intolerable’ Gaza offensive
- On May 21, 2025, the UK government announced sanctions on Israeli settler Daniella Weiss, two other settlers, two outposts, and three organizations linked to violence in the West Bank.
- The sanctions come amid increasing UK dissatisfaction with Prime Minister Netanyahu’s coalition and Israel’s military actions in Gaza, alongside ongoing diplomatic discussions involving the UK, France, and Saudi Arabia regarding the possible recognition of a Palestinian state.
- Measures include travel bans, asset freezes, and director disqualifications targeting extremists accused of threatening and displacing Palestinians in occupied West Bank territories.
- Foreign Secretary David Lammy emphasized that these sanctions reflect the UK’s commitment to holding extremist settlers responsible, cautioning that inaction threatens both Palestinian communities and the viability of the two-state solution.
- The UK paused trade negotiations with Israel, restored UNRWA funding, and dropped opposition to ICC arrest warrants for Netanyahu, signaling a shift amid calls for stronger action on Gaza and settlements.
