Join Global Legal Action Network and Al Haq for Human Rights as they challenge the UK Government in Court over arms sales to Israel
The organisers say,
“GLAN and Al-Haq are taking the UK government to the High Court over continued weapons exports to Israel, despite the ongoing violations of international law and UK rules which demand an immediate halt of all export licences.
The High Court has ruled that a 4 day expedited hearing will take place starting on 12th May to decide Al-Haq’s challenge to the government’s decision in September to (i) keep supplying F-35 parts to Israel indirectly (the ‘F-35 Carve Out Decision’), and (ii) keep supplying equipment that the government did not assess were capable of being used in the conflict in Gaza: – despite finding that Israel is not committed to complying with international humanitarian law.”
Campaigners will be gathering from 0830 outside the Royal Courts of Justice on the Strand, photoshoot will take place at 0900, then we will hear from guest speakers. Bring banners, drums, chants, art!
