What should the U.S. government do to ensure the safety of its citizens in the Middle East?

US embassies in capitals across the Middle East on Saturday warned American citizens to beware of an "unforeseen escalation" in the regional conflict and urged them to be ready to leave. The warning, posted online by US embassies in Bahrain, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates came a day after US President Donald Trump threatened to hit Iran "very hard". Iran and the United States have been at war since February 28. A period of calm followed a ceasefire, though that collapsed with a return of strikes

What are the possible effects of the court's decision on Palestine Action and similar activist groups?

Huda Ammori has been fighting the group's prohibition by the interior ministry since it was imposed in July 2025 under the UK's Terrorism Act. That move made membership of, or support for, the pro-Palestinian group a criminal offence punishable by up to 14 years in prison
