Egypt, Jordan back UK trade curbs on Israeli settlements; urge broader action

Egypt and Jordan publicly welcomed UK measures restricting trade linked to illegal Israeli settlements, with Cairo urging other states to follow suit and Amman calling for real consequences for Israeli policies undermining the two-state solution. The UK's move marks a notable shift in Western trade policy toward settlements, though its scope and enforcement remain unclear. This signals growing diplomatic pressure on Israel and could influence other Western nations' stances.
