WorldPalestine weekly: Settlement sanctions spark diplomatic crisis

A group of Western countries announced restrictions on Israeli settlement goods in the occupied West Bank, prompting Israel to order the UK to close its consulate in occupied East Jerusalem and impose other retaliatory measures. A new B’Tselem report describes the broader system as aimed at the “elimination” of Palestinians as an independent collective. Israeli attacks on Gaza continued, with mounting casualties and worsening humanitarian conditions.
