"The Israeli government's denial of essential humanitarian assistance to the civilian population is unacceptable and risks breaching international humanitarian law," a joint statement released by the prime minister's office said.

"We oppose any attempt to expand settlements in the West Bank.... We will not hesitate to take further action, including targeted sanctions."

The statement came after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that Israel would control the whole of Gaza despite mounting international pressure that forced it to lift a blockade on aid supplies that left the enclave on the brink of famine.

Action like sending more weapons and support to Israel? Just asking.

The targeted sancrions probably just mean sanctiona 2 or 3 settlers and no state wide sanctions
