UK Moves to Ban Palestine Action Group Following RAF Base Incident
Activist group's actions at RAF Brize Norton prompt terrorism designation
The UK government is set to designate the activist group Palestine Action as a terrorist organization after members infiltrated RAF Brize Norton and vandalized military aircraft.
The incident, which involved spraying red paint on planes and causing significant damage, has led to heightened security concerns.
Home Secretary Yvette Cooper is expected to present the proscription to Parliament, making it a criminal offense to support or belong to the group under the Terrorism Act 2000.
