Slovenia is imposing a travel ban on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to a government statement.

The country imposed a ban on far-right cabinet ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir in July.

Slovenia, an EU member state that recognized a Palestinian state last year, imposed an arms embargo on Israel in August and introduced a ban on imports of goods produced in Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
