UK sanctions on Israeli settlements and 12 nations oppose annexation
Britain has imposed new sanctions on Israeli settlements in the West Bank, including a ban on importing their products, reflecting a more hardline stance towards Israel under Prime Minister Andy Burnham's government. British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband announced that the government considers the settlements to be illegal and part of "ethnic cleansing," and that it will pursue companies and individuals contributing to their expansion as part of international cooperation. These measures come after criticism of the "E1" settlement project, the worsening situation in Gaza, and reaffirmations of support for a two-state solution, while Israel responded by condemning the sanctions and accusing Britain of anti-Semitism. France, Canada, and other European countries are also moving towards taking steps to counter the expansion of settlements, amid escalating violence and increasing risks to the prospects of achieving a peaceful resolution.
