"Biden Imposes Sanctions on Israeli Settlers for West Bank Violence"

TL;DR Summary
President Joe Biden signed an executive order granting the Treasury Department the power to issue sanctions against Israelis complicit in the illegal settlement movement in the West Bank, citing "extremist settler violence" as a threat to peace and stability in the region. The order targets those involved in forcibly displacing Palestinians from their homes using violence, threats, or intimidation. The move comes amid tensions between Palestinians and the Israeli government, and as the Biden administration faces pressure to call for a ceasefire in Gaza.
