On 21 November 2025, Singapore announced targeted sanctions against four Israeli settlers for involvement in violence against Palestinians in the West Bank. The measures include financial restrictions and entry bans, with compliance enforced by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).
Key terms require financial institutions to freeze all funds and assets, prohibit any transactions or services, and ensure no resources are made available to the designated individuals. Non-financial businesses have no direct obligations, but any dealings routed through Singapore’s financial system will be blocked.
This action reflects Singapore’s growing use of autonomous sanctions as part of its foreign policy, signalling stricter enforcement against individuals linked to regional conflicts.
