The UK proscribed Hamas in its entirety in November 2021, making it a criminal offence to be a member of or support the organisation, and we have also sanctioned Palestinian Islamic Jihad, The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine - General Command, and a number of associated individuals. We do not comment on potential future sanctions, as to do so would risk reducing their impact.
