NBC reports that President Joe Biden is expected to issue an executive order targeting Israeli settlers in the West Bank on February 1.

According to United Nations data, since the beginning of Israel's war against Hamas, over 300 Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank by settlers or security forces.

Between October 7 and January 31, the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs recorded 491 settler attacks on Palestinians.

In December, the State Department said that it would look to impose a travel ban on some settlers following a series of attacks.

The United States has consistently opposed actions that undermine stability in the West Bank, including attacks by Israeli settlers against Palestinians, and Palestinian attacks against Israelis, Antony Blinken, Secretary of State, via NBC.

According to spokesperson Matt Miller, the visa ban would target "dozens" of extremist Israeli settlers and their families.

We have underscored to the Israeli government the need to do more to hold accountable extremist settlers who have committed violent attacks against Palestinians in the West Bank.

As President Biden has repeatedly said, those attacks are unacceptable, Antony Blinken, Secretary of State, via NBC.
