The UN has added nearly 70 companies to the blacklist of one company from 11 countries, which say are accomplices of violating Palestinian human rights through commercial relations with Israeli settlements occupying the West Bank. The new list focuses on companies engaged in businesses that are considered to support settlements, which many consider illegal under international law. It includes a range of companies, such as suppliers of building materials and earth promoters, as well as security, travel and financial services providers.
