Palestinian rights group Al-Haq is taking legal action against Britain's Department for Business and Trade at London's High Court, seeking to block the export of F-35 fighter jet parts to Israel. Al-Haq argues that allowing the export of these parts, despite acknowledging the risk of their use in breach of international humanitarian law, is unlawful. The British government acknowledges the risk but has decided to continue with the export, citing the impact on international peace and security. A full hearing of Al-Haq's legal challenge is expected to take place in early 2025.
