UK High Court Rules Palestine Action Ban Unlawful, Citing Government Error

• Britain's High Court declared the government's decision to outlaw Palestine Action as a terrorist organization unlawful.
• Judges Victoria Sharp, Jonathan Swift, and Karen Steyn stated the ban remains while the government considers an appeal.
• Last year, the UK government designated Palestine Action a terrorist group, making support punishable by up to 14 years in prison.
• Over 2,000 people have been arrested for displaying signs supporting Palestine Action since the ban.
• The ban followed activists breaking into a Royal Air Force base in June, damaging tanker planes to protest UK military support for Israel.
