The listing, which includes 158 companies, does not impose legal sanctions but serves as a warning about complicity in human rights violations.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside ACS, other Spanish firms such as Ineco, CAF, and SEMI were cited for their role in infrastructure projects like Jerusalem\u2019s light rail, which links the city to settlements. Ineco insists its contracts remain within internationally recognized borders and that it stopped accepting new projects in 2023. ACS has strongly denied involvement in settlements, with Pe\u0301rez calling the UN\u2019s decision unjustified and demanding immediate removal from the list. CAF also defended its \u20ac1.8 billion rail contract, arguing it benefits local populations and respects international standards.<\/p>\n<p>The UN\u2019s database also includes major international companies such as Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, Motorola, and French firm Egis, highlighting the global reach of business activity in disputed territories. While the listing carries no direct penalties, it carries reputational weight. In Spain, the controversy resonates loudly: Pe\u0301rez, both a football powerbroker and a business magnate, finds himself at the heart of a political storm as the Sa\u0301nchez government deepens its support for the Palestinian cause.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Lesotho<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Lesotho.
