Canada announced today that it has imposed sanctions on seven individuals and five entities for their roles in facilitating, supporting, or financially contributing to attacks by Israeli colonists against Palestinian civilians in the occupied West Bank.
In a statement, the Canadian Ministry of Foreign Affairs explained that the new sanctions include seven individuals and five entities for facilitating or financially contributing to acts of violence carried out by extremist Israeli colonists against Palestinian civilians and their properties in the West Bank.
The statement elaborated that "the violence by extremist settlers has resulted in loss of life and damage to Palestinian property and agricultural lands."
