Iran War: West Bank: Britain bans trade with goods from Israeli settlements

The US military has lost a drone, an Anduril Dive-LD, due to a malfunction during an operation in the Middle East over a day ago. The drone, described as an older, defective model, did not carry sensitive data or secret equipment. Meanwhile, Israel has reacted strongly to British sanctions on goods from Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, with Foreign Minister Gideon Saar warning of possible retaliatory measures.

President Izchak Herzog called the sanctions a "severe miscalculation" and an attempt to interfere with Israel's democratic elections. US Ambassador Mike Huckabee said the sanctions discriminate against the Jewish people and warned of possible US consequences.
