AGP Executive Report
Last update: 11 hours agoSettlement Trade Sanctions: Canada, France and the UK moved to ban goods and some services tied to illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, with Ed Miliband citing “ethnic cleansing” and tightening arms-export limits—Israel retaliated by ordering the closure of the UK consulate in East Jerusalem. Regional Pushback and Support: Arab and Muslim countries including the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Qatar, Jordan, Turkey, Indonesia and Pakistan welcomed the UK curbs, while Israel’s foreign minister said there are no plans to forcibly expel or deport Palestinians from Gaza. Diplomatic Fallout: Miliband insisted UK-Israel intelligence sharing will continue, even as Israel’s response sparks wider European divisions and more countries join settlement-linked trade restrictions. West Bank on the Ground: Israeli forces raided Awarta near Nablus, beating and injuring two Palestinians, as settlement expansion and violence continue. Gaza Connectivity: Despite damage to telecom networks, Gaza Sky Geeks expanded co-working spaces powered by solar and generators to keep tech work alive. Local Ramallah Angle: Israel also redrew a 1984 “state land” declaration, adding about 48 acres near Jalud and Al-Mughayyir, tightening control over Palestinian land use.
