A lawsuit to stop arms exports to Israel reaches the High Court in London

The West Bank-based Palestinian human rights organization Al-Haq, which documents alleged human rights abuses by Israel in Gaza, has launched legal action against Britain over licenses to export weapons and military equipment.

Al-Haq’s legal action to stop British arms exports to Israel over allegations of violations of international law in the Gaza war will be heard in October at the High Court in London, a judge ruled on Tuesday, Reuters reports. .

Al-Haq, which is involved in similar cases in Canada and Denmark, says there is a clear risk that weapons exported from the UK will be used in breach of international humanitarian law, making their continued export illegal.

The British government has come under strong pressure to revoke arms export licenses as Israel’s air and ground campaign in Gaza, triggered by the October 7 Hamas attack in Israel, has caused numerous casualties.
