#32026D1176EU Adds Settler Violence-Related Sanctions Under Global Human Rights Regime
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
This decision adds three people and four entities to the EU sanctions list under the Global Human Rights Sanctions Regime. The Council links the move to continued and growing violence by extremist settlers against Palestinian civilians, and to organisations that support them. The practical effect is that listed people and entities face EU restrictive measures, typically including asset freezes and limits on making funds or economic resources available to them. Businesses, banks, NGOs, and compliance teams operating in or with the EU should screen the updated list and make sure they are not providing prohibited support.
