EU imposes sanctions on five Israeli individuals and three entities
The European Union announced sanctions on Monday against five Israeli individuals and three entities, describing them as responsible for 'serious and systematic human rights abuses' against Palestinians in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
The list included Tzav 9, a group which it said had regularly blocked humanitarian aid trucks delivering food, water and fuel to the Gaza Strip.
Also on the list were Ben-Zion Gopstein, founder and leader of the Lehava organisation, and Isaschar Manne, whom the EU described as the founder of an unauthorised outpost in the Israeli-occupied West Bank.
