US Sanctions Palestine Action as Global Terrorist Organization

The U.S. Treasury Department on Wednesday, August 26, 2026, imposed sanctions on the British-based direct action group Palestine Action, designating it a Specially Designated Global Terrorist. The action, announced by the Trump administration, freezes the group's assets within the United States and prohibits American citizens and financial institutions from conducting transactions with it. The sanctions also target two other organizations, Masar Badil and Autistici Inventati, as part of a broader campaign against what the administration describes as violent far-left terrorist networks.
