US court denies Ben & Jerry's efforts to stop its parent company Unilever from selling its ice cream products in Israel-occupied Palestinian territories via an Israeli-license holder

The company announced last July it would no longer sell its ice cream in the occupied Palestinian territories, saying it was"inconsistent with our values," although it said it would sell its products in Israel.

Ben & Jerry's has lost its bid to block its parent company Unilever from selling its ice cream in Israel occupied West Bank, which the US firm said would run counter to its values. However, a US federal judge ruled on Monday the ice cream company had "failed to demonstrate" that the move to sell the goods in the Israeli-occupied settlements caused it "irreparable harm."in occupied Palestine's territories, which Israel seized in 1967, saying it was "inconsistent with our values," although it said it would keep selling its products in Israel.
