Won High Court challenge; faces ongoing legal proceedings
Britain's High Court ruled on February 13, 2026 that the government acted illegally when it banned Palestine Action as a terrorist organization last summer—the first time a UK court has overturned a terrorism proscription through judicial review.

The ruling calls into question arrests of more than 2,700 people and charges against 250 under the Terrorism Act.
