Palestinian NGO Challenges UK on F-35 Exports to Israel

Al-Haq seeks legal action against UK's decision to allow F-35 parts exports, citing potential violations in Gaza.

Al-Haq, a Palestinian rights group, is taking legal action in the UK's High Court against the export of F-35 fighter jet parts to Israel.
Britain acknowledged the risk that these components could be used in violation of international humanitarian law in Gaza.
In September, the UK suspended 30 of 350 arms export licenses but continued allowing F-35 parts exports due to global program impacts.
Israel denies allegations of war crimes in Gaza, asserting efforts to avoid civilian harm, while the UN reports high civilian casualties.
A full hearing of Al-Haq's challenge is expected in early 2025, amid ongoing scrutiny of Israel's military actions in Gaza.
