WHAT HAPPENED

Human Rights Watch describes a UK veto or ban on trade with Israeli settlements as a positive but long-delayed step. The measure represents a concrete UK policy action concerning the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The action could affect UK commercial ties with settlements and increase diplomatic pressure over Israel's settlement policy.
