Co-founder of Palestine Action: government’s ban on group ‘backfired’

In February 2026, the co-founder of Palestine Action, Huda Ammori, stated that the UK government's ban on the group had backfired. This statement followed a High Court ruling that deemed the government's proscription of Palestine Action as a "terror" organization unlawful. The ruling and Ammori's comments highlight the legal challenge to the government's decision to classify Palestine Action as a terrorist entity. The core issue revolves around the legality and justification of the government's ban on the organization. The location of these events is the UK.
