US Imposes Sanctions on Palestine Action Group
The designation adds Palestine Action to Washington’s global terrorism sanctions list after Britain banned the group over attacks on defense sites.
- On Wednesday, the United States Treasury Department designated Palestine Action as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist, placing the group on Washington's global terrorism sanctions list.
- Founded in 2020, the group has centered its campaign on disrupting organizations it accuses of supporting Israel, particularly defense manufacturer Elbit Systems, through facility break-ins and property damage.
- The United Kingdom previously proscribed Palestine Action as a terrorist organization in July 2025, citing incidents like the June 2025 break-in at RAF Brize Norton where activists sprayed aircraft with paint.
- Supporters and civil liberties groups argue the terrorism designation threatens the right to protest, while the organization rejects the label, describing its activities as a campaign against arms trade with Israel.
- The Supreme Court will hear an appeal against the British ban, determining whether the United Kingdom's decision to proscribe the group as a terrorist organization was lawful.
