There are multiple meanings for the word sanction, that can seem contradictory. Sanction can mean to receive approval or to receive punishment. Sanctioned is when someone gives approval do action. This word is a noun.

When the leaders of a country have a problem with another country, rather than going to war, they can enact sanctions against that opposing country. They can outlaw the trading of things like food or health supplies from their own country to that opposing country. These sanctions can have the same effect as war, by killing off people of the enemy country.
