The Biden administration imposed sanctions on Monday on three Israeli private companies involved in building in Israeli towns in Judea and Samaria.

This represents the first time that a private company has been sanctioned for its involvement in expanding Israeli construction.

The companies targeted include Amana, which is involved in the construction of new towns throughout Judea and Samaria, as well as the construction firms Binyanei Bar Amana and Eyal Harei Yehuda

Sanctions were also imposed on three individuals. Shabtai Kushlevsky was sanctioned for his activities in the organization Hashomer Yosh, which itself has been sanctioned in the past.

Itamar Yehuda Levi was sanctioned for his activities in the construction company Eyal Harei Yehuda, as well as Zohar Sabah from the town of Mevo'ot Yericho.
