A Palestinian rights group has successfully secured a full judicial review hearing at the High Court in London, challenging the UK government's arms exports to Israel. The case, led by GLAN Law and Al-Haq, alleges that these exports may be contributing to violations of international humanitarian law in Gaza. The hearing is scheduled for October, although the UK government sought to delay the case until December. The hearing will take place at 10:30 am at the Royal Courts of Justice. This legal action follows international concerns over humanitarian conditions in Gaza, with accusations that the UK's failure to halt these exports could amount to aiding war crimes.

The International Court was totally clear that everything must be done to address the humanitarian emergency in Gaza. If it now refuses to fund UNRWA, the UK Government will be aiding and abetting Israel's use of starvation as a weapon of war in Gaza - which is a war crime. https://t.co/6n8kMuIKBW
