Building on the previous day's British ban on settlement trade, Palestinian outlets reported its widening to 12 Western states, with France joining and eight Arab and Islamic states welcoming the move, while Washington was said not to oppose London. Israel formalized retaliation by notifying the British consulate in East Jerusalem to close within 30 days, as Finance Minister Smotrich announced 1,000 new units in the central West Bank and settlers demanded cancellation of Oslo.
On the ground, coverage shifted to continued Israeli strikes across Gaza despite the ceasefire, with homes hit in Bureij, Nuseirat and Khan Younis and the killing of deported ex-prisoner Farah Hamed. In the West Bank, the siege of Shuafat and Anata entered a second day alongside a killing in Aqraba, demolitions in Silwan and al-Ram, and settler attacks.
