Trump has rescinded the Biden administration’s sanctions against Israelis accused of violence in the territory.

Trump also canceled a Biden order blocking sanctions on the International Criminal Court amid his flurry of day-one executive orders.

Elise Stefanik, nominated by U.S. President Donald Trump for ambassador to the United Nations, stated on Tuesday that she agrees with the opinion that Israel has a "biblical right" to annex the West Bank.

On his first day in office, President Donald Trump signed a flurry of executive orders from withdrawing from the World Health Organization to reversing one that sanctioned violent Israeli settlers in the West Bank.

WASHINGTON - U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday rescinded sanctions imposed by the former Biden administration on far-right Israeli settler groups and individuals accused of being involved in violence against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank,

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich welcomed U.S. President Donald Trump's reversal of sanctions imposed by the Biden administration on Israeli settler groups and individuals accused of being involved in violence against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.

President Donald Trump rescinded sanctions imposed by the Biden administration on Israeli settler groups and individuals accused of attacking Palestinians.

The move came shortly after President Trump took office, and as Jewish extremists raided villages in the Israeli-occupied West Bank in protest against the cease-fire in Gaza.

Trump also restored sanctions that his predecessor Joe Biden had suspended against the International Criminal Court, which has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former defence minister “for crimes against humanity and war crimes”.
