The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear cases that will determine whether Palestinian groups, including the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) and Hamas, can be sued in U.S. courts for terrorist attacks against American citizens abroad. This decision follows a request from the families of American victims of the October 7 Hamas attack in Israel, and it aims to assess the legality of a 2019 federal statute designed to facilitate such lawsuits. The court's ruling could have significant implications for the ability of U.S. citizens to seek justice for acts of terrorism perpetrated by foreign entities.
