US EditionPalestine Action Legal Challenge Against UK Proscription
- On June 20, Palestine Action activists vandalised two British military Voyager planes at RAF Brize Norton, prompting five arrests on terror suspicion.
- The UK Government, citing the group’s alleged criminal damage history, proposed banning Palestine Action under anti-terror laws to protect national security.
- Palestine Action, a civil disobedience movement opposing violations by Israel, challenged the ban with an urgent High Court hearing led by founder Huda Ammori.
- The court scheduled a hearing on July 4 to consider a judicial review, supported by Amnesty International and others, over concerns the ban misuses anti-terror measures.
- If the ban is implemented, belonging to the group could lead to criminal charges with a maximum sentence of 14 years, although ongoing legal proceedings may prevent or postpone this from happening.
