News 📅 4 November 2026 📍 Palestine, United Kingdom

A two-day appeal opened at the UK Supreme Court on 4 November. Huda Ammori, co-founder of Palestine Action, is challenging the Home Secretary’s decision to proscribe the group under the Terrorism Act 2000, arguing that the ban is incompatible with European Convention rights to freedom of expression and assembly. The Court listing says the appeal concerns that rights question; Amnesty International UK and Liberty, English PEN and PEN International, and Jewish Bloc were listed as interveners. PEN International said its intervention addresses freedom of expression. The Associated Press reported that Palestine Action supporters were arrested outside as the hearing began. These are the parties’ arguments and the appeal remained undecided at the time of reporting.
