UN expands list of companies linked to Israeli settlements to 214
–
Neutral summary
The UN human rights office published an updated list on Friday, September 25, adding 61 companies to its database of businesses tied to Israeli settlements in the West Bank. The total now stands at 214 firms from 11 countries, the vast majority Israeli. Newly added companies include Israeli pesticides maker ADAMA, part of Chinese-owned Syngenta Group, Israeli real estate investment holding company Alony Hetz, and Spain's Salvat Logistica. Five companies were removed from the previous list of 158, including one Israeli and two Spanish firms. The database, first released in 2020, still includes companies such as Airbnb, Booking, Expedia, Motorola and TripAdvisor. The list is considered highly sensitive as firms could face boycotts or divestment pressure over settlement expansion in territory home to over 3 million Palestinians. Israel contests the database, arguing that companies operating legally are being unfairly punished. Two French companies, Egis and its subsidiary Egis Rail, remain on the list, as they were in 2025.
