Britain's High Court ruled Friday that the government's decision to ban the pro-Palestinian group Palestine Action as a terrorist organization was unlawful, according to multiple reports from NPR. However, the ban will remain in place pending another hearing while the government prepares an appeal, as stated by The Associated Press.
The High Court's decision came after the government outlawed Palestine Action. The group has been the subject of controversy, including a break-in at RAF Brize Norton on June 20, where aircraft were damaged with spraypaint, as reported by The Associated Press. Protests related to the group have been ongoing, with activists appearing in court in London.
The court's ruling, delivered by judges Victoria Sharp and Jonathan, found the government's actions unlawful. The exact reasoning behind the ruling was not immediately available, but the government's appeal suggests the matter is far from settled. The case highlights the ongoing debate surrounding the group and the government's response to its activities.
