More than two dozen supporters of Palestine Action were arrested outside the UK Supreme Court as the court heard a legal challenge to the government's decision to designate the group as a terrorist organization. The group's co-founder, Huda Ammori, is arguing that the ban is disproportionate and infringes on freedom of speech and protest. Lawyers for Ammori stated that only three of the group's 385 actions over five years met the legal definition of terrorism, which was based solely on serious damage to property. The case follows a previous ruling by the Court of Appeal that upheld the ban, which has led to over 4,000 arrests of supporters since its implementation.
