Home Secretary Yvette Cooper declared that Palestine Action will be designated as a terrorist organization under anti-terror laws, citing recent acts of vandalism, including an incident at RAF Brize Norton. The announcement coincided with a protest in central London where the group demonstrated against the UK's support for Israel amid the Gaza conflict, resulting in police arrests. Cooper emphasized that this decision targets Palestine Action specifically and does not hinder lawful protests. The move has sparked mixed reactions, with some politicians deeming it excessive while condemning the group's conduct as unacceptable.
Home Secretary Yvette Cooper stated that Palestine Action, after a history of criminal damage, will be proscribed under anti-terror law, calling their actions a "disgraceful attack."
