Singapore's foreign affairs ministry on Friday said that the country will sanction four Israelis and bar them from entering for “egregious acts of extreme violence” against Palestinians in the West Bank, Reuters reported. 

Actions committed in the West Bank by Meir Mordechai Ettinger, Elisha Yered, Bentzi Gopstein, and Baruch Marzel were unlawful and had jeopardised the prospects for a two-state solution, the ministry said. 

“As a firm supporter of international law and the two-state solution, Singapore opposes any unilateral attempts to change facts on the ground through acts which are illegal under international law,” it said.

All four individuals have previously been sanctioned by the European Union.

In September, Singapore’s foreign minister Vivian Balakrishnan announced in parliament that leaders of Israeli settler groups would be sanctioned.

The truce has been repeatedly violated, with Israel launching new operations and continuing strikes in Gaza, while settlers intensify efforts to displace Palestinians across the occupied West Bank.

The United Nations warned that the current living situation for Palestinians is dire and will worsen as winter approaches, the UN News reported on Wednesday.

UN humanitarian partners warned that shelter supplies entering Gaza remain far below what is needed. Fewer than 60,000 tents and just over 300,000 tarpaulins and bedding items have entered since early September, for a population that was 2.3 million before the war. 

Israel's destruction of Gaza’s wastewater treatment system during its war on the strip has led to UN humanitarian partners describing sanitation across the enclave as “deplorable”.

In northern Gaza, emergency measures are being taken to drain sewage into the sea.

The sanitation situation has led to an increase in worsening public health outcomes, including the spread of bacterial infections linked to contaminated water and waste.
