Quoting an Israeli official, the Times of Israel reports that the US is no longer considering sanctioning Israel's far-right ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir.
The Biden administration was reportedly weighing the option over the past few days.
However, the Israeli official said that the US will continue sanctioning Israeli extremists in the occupied West Bank, despite heavy pushback from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his meeting with US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan and Vice President Kamala Harris.
