How Palestine Action Shook Britain: Co-Founder Huda Ammori Goes On the Record
Palestine Action ‘Embarrassed the State’
In this exclusive conversation, Palestine Action co-founder Huda Ammori sits down for her first in-person interview in two years.
Speaking to Matt Kennard of Palestine Deep Dive, Ammori reflects on the extraordinary journey of the direct action movement she launched in 2020, from its campaign against Israeli weapons manufacturer Elbit Systems to its proscription by the UK government in 2025.
Ammori discusses the events leading up to the ban, the targeting of RAF Brize Norton, the government’s use of terrorism legislation, and why she believes the attempt to suppress Palestine Action has instead generated unprecedented public support and drawn greater attention to Britain’s role in the Israeli genocide in Gaza.
Although the High Court ruled in February 2026 that the Palestine Action ban had breached the right to protest and had been incorrectly taken by ministers, the Court of Appeal earlier this month upheld the proscription which Ammori says she intends to appeal to the UK Supreme Court. As legal challenges continue and new groups emerge to carry forward similar tactics, Ammori argues that the movement’s core message has reached further than ever before.
