Julian Assange, founder of WikiLeaks, is facing a crucial U.K. court hearing regarding his extradition to the United States to face spying charges. After years of legal battles, the High Court will consider whether Assange can appeal against his extradition. The Australian activist, who has been in a London prison since 2019, previously sought asylum in the Ecuadorian Embassy to avoid extradition to Sweden over sexual assault allegations.
