Huda Ammori, co-founder of Palestine Action, has criticized the UK government's approach to Israel, describing sanctions as "symbolic" and "ineffective," according to Middle East Eye. Ammori's remarks come as the UK designated the direct action group itself a "terrorist" organization, raising questions about the consistency of British policy toward Palestinian activism and Israeli conduct.
The criticism highlights a divide between Palestinian advocacy groups and UK authorities. Ammori points to what she sees as a gap between London's treatment of Palestinian activists and its approach to Israeli actions.
