US Sanctions 2 Israelis Involved in West Bank Violence

The State Department this week sanctioned two Israelis that it said are involved in violence against Palestinians in the West Bank. The agency said Eitan Yardeni joined a group that invaded the Palestinian town of Khallet Al Dabaa and attacked its inhabitants, and Avichai Suissa is the CEO and director of Hashomer Yosh, a group sanctioned by the U.S. in August for supporting other U.S.-designated Israeli groups and people in the region (see 2408280023).
