Israel plans to impose sanctions this week against South Africa, the Israeli newspaper Yediot Aharonot reported. A plan drafted by the Foreign Ministry calls for drastically reducing technological and scientific exports to South Africa, banning cultural contacts with white South Africans and cutting back coal and steel imports, the paper said. Foreign Minister Shimon Peres said in March that Israel will sign no new contracts to ship Pretoria military supplies and that officials were studying new sanctions against the nation.
