Israel has warned it will target British charities, protest groups and activism organizations, saying there will be "consequences" for the UK's recent sanctions, Al Jazeera English reported. The threat specifically names Palestine Action alongside unnamed charitable groups and campaign organizations. The warning follows London's implementation of sanctions against Israel.
The move represents an escalation in tensions between London and Jerusalem over UK policy toward Israel, with Israeli officials using legal or administrative bans as potential leverage against British civil society groups engaged in activism or humanitarian work.
