Spain steps up pressure on Israel with shipping, aircraft restrictions | Dawn News English

Spain will increase pressure on Israel by banning Israel-bound ships and aircraft carrying weapons from docking at Spanish ports or entering Spanish airspace, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said on Monday (September 8). Spain will also increase aid to the Palestinian authority and the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) and will impose an embargo on goods made in Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories, he said. "We hope that (the measures) will serve to add pressure on (Israeli) Prime Minister Netanyahu and his government to alleviate some of the suffering that the Palestinian population is enduring," Sanchez said in a public address aired on local TV. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dawn News English is your window into the latest news, insight, and features from South Asia and beyond.
