UK Court Grants Julian Assange Right to Appeal US Extradition

Judges rule US assurances on Assange's constitutional protections are insufficient, extending the long-running legal battle.

• Assange faces 18 charges in the US, including espionage and hacking conspiracy.
• US guarantees no death penalty but First Amendment protections remain disputed.
• Assange's legal team and press freedom advocates argue for case dismissal.
• The decision is seen as a significant moment for press freedom and Assange's supporters.
• Assange has been detained in the UK since 2019 and previously sheltered in the Ecuadorian Embassy.
