Sanctions
Tom Keatinge, from the Royal United Services Institute think tank, told the BBC that putting sanctions on Ben-Gvir and Smotrich would be a "significant move" aimed at sending a "major political message" to Israel. He also said there was "not a precedent" for the UK government sanctioning elements of an ally country. He added that there were "practical issues" as sanctions required "a lot of work" and that the Foreign Office's sanctions director was already "heavily overworked" due to issues related to Russia.
