WorldFood from illegal West Bank settlements sold in Australia as ‘produce of Israel’

Global Echo says 85 of 132 agricultural shipments from Israel to Australia between August 2018 and August 2026 contained goods from West Bank settlements, including at least $5m worth of organic dates. Australia has no blanket ban on settlement imports and does not require them to be labelled as originating in occupied territory.
