Legal groups to continue action over Britain's arms exports to Israel

TWO groups challenging Britain’s arms exports to Israel vowed to continue their fight today.
The government finally imposed a partial suspension of arms exports licences to Israel on Monday.
Palestinian rights group Al-Haq and the UK-based Global Legal Action Network (GLAN) had already sought a judicial review of the previous government’s decision to continue arms sales to Israel, citing risks of their use in violating international humanitarian law in Gaza.
