The UK’s highest court granted permission on Thursday for Palestine Action co-founder Huda Ammori to challenge a Court of Appeal ruling upholding a ban on the group, Anadolu reports.
The top court said Ammori could appeal the Court of Appeal decision, and that the case would be heard in the final quarter of 2026.
“We will be arguing in the Supreme Court that the ban is unlawful, as it is disproportionate to free speech and the right to protest.
The high court ruled in February that the ban was disproportionate and unlawful, but its decision was overturned last month by the Court of Appeal.
Human rights groups, as well as UN experts, have criticized the escalating crackdown on peaceful protests in the UK, urging the government to reverse its ban on Palestine Action as a terror group.
