Canada to sanction west bank settlers and hamas leaders

BY A STAFF REPORTER: Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Jolie said sanctions would be imposed on Israeli settlers inciting violence in the West Bank and new sanctions would be imposed on Hamas leaders.

On Thursday, the United States imposed sanctions on four Israelis for their alleged involvement in violence in the occupied territories.

Jolie said some settlers would be "sanctioned again" and "we will also be imposing new sanctions on Hamas leaders." We are actively working on it. I confirm that work is being done in Ottawa while I am in Ukraine and I look forward to making an announcement soon. "
