  • Sanctions include asset freezes, bans on using the US financial system, and EU travel bans for individuals and entities.
  • Targeted entities raised significant funds for previously sanctioned settlers, intensifying efforts to curb violence.
  • Lehava leader Ben-Zion Gopstein and members of the Hilltop Youth are among those sanctioned due to their roles in inciting and participating in violence.
  • The actions reflect a growing international response to ongoing settler violence and human rights abuses in the region.
