Background

Extremist settler violence against Palestinian civilians and their property in the oPt has long been a source of tension and conflict. The number of extremist settler attacks has risen on a yearly basis since 2020 and peaked in the months following Hamas’ terrorist attack against Israel on October 7^th, 2023. These attacks have included killings, physical and verbal assaults, damages to private property and destruction of farming lands and have resulted in the forced displacement of Palestinian communities.

On May 16, 2024, the sanctions related to extremist settler violence under the  came into force. They represent a significant step in Canada’s response to this ongoing violence. By imposing these measures, Canada seeks to hold accountable individuals responsible for these harmful attacks and to deter future attacks against civilians and their property in oPt. These measures will impose a prohibition on dealings related to the listed individuals and will render them inadmissible to Canada under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act. The new measures also targeted four (4) individuals for their role in extremist settler violence.

On June 26, 2024, Canada amended the Special Economic Measures (Extremist Settler Violence) Regulations to list an additional seven (7) individuals, and five (5) entities to the Schedule. These persons are recommended for listing under the Schedule in relation to their role in participating in or facilitating extremist settler violence.

On September 17, 2024, Canada amended the Special Economic Measures (Extremist Settler Violence) Regulations to list an additional four (4) individuals and two (2) entities. These persons have engaged in activities that undermine the peace and security of the State of Israel and the oPt by engaging in or supporting Israeli extremist settler violence against Palestinian civilians, including attacks on humanitarian convoys, dispossession of property and displacement of Palestinian communities.
