WATCH: UK court rejects legal action against sale of F-35 parts to Israel
The judges ruled that blocking the export was the prerogative of the executive—which had warned against undermining U.S. trust in Britain.
A British court ruled on Monday that the United Kingdom need not block the sale to Israel of U.K.-made parts for the F-35 fighter jet, dismissing an anti-Israel group’s legal action to ban it.
The Al-Haq group asked the High Court in London to block Britain’s Department for Business and Trade’s decision to exempt F-35 parts when it suspended some arms export licenses last year.
The direct export to Israel of U.K.-made F-35 components is still suspended. The lawsuit was over parts sent to a global F-35 spare parts pool, from which Israel may obtain them.
