![BREAKING: Following a fresh review the UK Government has doubled down on its previous position that protecting global sales of F-35s takes precedence over its obligation to protect human life in Gaza.
As part of our legal fight against the govt with @al_haq_organization the govt have responded to our arguments to end arms exports. They say that the interests of international peace and security is a “matter of such gravity that it would have overridden any [...] further evidence of serious breaches of IHL” and so exports of fighter jet parts will not stop.
This clearly is an extreme position.
Essentially the Government is saying that that there is no world in which the supply of F-35 components would be suspended. Even in the case of an ongoing genocide.

![On Monday we are back in Court taking the UK government to task for their complicity in the atrocities that are unfolding in Gaza.
In October David Lammy said that evaluating Israel’s attack on Gaza in terms of genocide “undermines [the] seriousness” of the term. This is fundamentally untrue. Newsflash to Lammy - with @al_haq_organization we’re suing the govt for its incorrect interpretation of its obligation to prevent genocide.
As we watch in horror as the atrocities in Gaza continue, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed and hopeless. We have a concrete action that YOU can take to make a huge difference.
