What happened, for context

The Trump administration designated the UK-based direct action group Palestine Action as a specially designated global terrorist organization on August 26, 2026, imposing sanctions that freeze US-held assets and prohibit US persons from providing funds or services to the group. Palestine Action, already banned in the UK in July 2025, is appealing that ban before the British Supreme Court in November.
