The US State Department has moved to sanction four Israeli citizens involved in extremist settler activities following President Joe Biden’s executive order today.

The department named four people who it said were involved in settler-led attacks on Palestinians: David Chai Chasdai, Einan Tanjil, Shalom Zicherman and Yinon Levi.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken said “Israel must do more to stop violence against civilians in the West Bank and hold accountable those responsible for it”.

“The United States will continue to take actions to advance the foreign policy objectives of the United States, including the viability of a two-state solution, and is committed to the safety, security, and dignity of Israelis and Palestinians alike,” he said.

The sanctioning follows the death of American teenager Tawfic Hafeth Abdel Jabbar, who was shot and killed last month during a visit to the West Bank to learn more about his Palestinian heritage, US NBC News reported.
