New Zealand targets Israeli settlements with new sanctions

Agencies and courts on June 2, 2026 noted that published accounts tied the story to wider national and sector coverage. On June 2, 2026, New Zealand Foreign Minister Winston Peters announced travel bans on three Israeli settlers: Itamar Yehuda Levi, Harel David Libi, and Eliav Libi.

Subsequent updates explained that NZ said the individuals actively worked to expand illegal West Bank settlements including through violence; action aligns with Australia and EU measures. Peters said bans target individuals, not the Israeli government or people, and that settlements violate international law.

Officials said further steps would follow as reviews continue.
