UN expands blacklist of firms in West Bank settlements to 138
Original: UN expands 'blacklist' of Israeli companies in West Bank settlements to 138
The United Nations has expanded its list of companies with ties to Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank to 138 businesses. The so-called blacklist names firms deemed to be operating in or supporting settlement activity, which Israel and several Western governments dispute. The update is expected to draw sharp reactions from Israel, settler groups and businesses named, while human rights organisations welcome it as increased accountability.
Why now: The UN's updated listing of settlement-linked companies is a significant and contested development in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
