US poised to designate UK group Palestine Action as global terrorist organization
The Trump administration is reportedly planning to designate the UK-based Palestine Action as a global terrorist organization, a move that would place it on a sanctions list with Hamas, al-Qaeda and ISIS. If enacted, the designation would freeze US assets, bar Americans from doing business with the group, and impose lifetime entry bans on supporters, effectively cutting it off from the global financial system. The action follows the UK government’s 2025 proscription of Palestine Action and could complicate ongoing legal challenges by co-founder Huda Ammori. No immediate comment from the White House or State Department was available.
