Spain Intensifies Measures Against Israel Amid Rising Tensions
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez announced measures to pressure Israel, including banning weapons shipments via Spanish ports. Spain will increase aid to Palestinians and embargo goods from Israeli settlements. Additionally, those involved in alleged 'genocide' will be banned from entering Spain.
In a bold move, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has declared escalated actions against Israel, including preventing Israeli-bound weapons from transiting through Spanish territories. Speaking on Monday, Sanchez outlined his government's strategy aimed at increasing diplomatic pressure on Israel.
Besides halting the transportation of arms, Spain has also pledged to enhance its financial support to the Palestinian authority and the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). Moreover, Spain will enforce an embargo on products originating from Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories.
This comprehensive approach aims to urge Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's administration to mitigate the hardships faced by Palestinians, which Sanchez articulated as part of a broader policy framework. Additionally, entry bans will be imposed on individuals deemed complicit in what Sanchez described as 'genocide'.
