Britain imposes sanctions on four extremist settlers in the West Bank. The sanctions include economic and travel restrictions, and are intended to combat the ongoing settler violence that threatens stability in Judea and Samaria.

Two of those who will be sanctioned today - Moshe Sharvit and Yeynon Levy - have physically harmed people in recent months, threatened families at gunpoint, and vandalized property. The measures taken today will impose strict economic restrictions as well as strict travel restrictions on those who carry out these actions.
