US Supreme Court to review if American victims of Middle East attacks can sue Palestinian authorities.

The US Supreme Court will review whether Palestinian authorities can be sued in American courts by Americans injured or killed in Middle East terror attacks. The case centers on a 2019 law that permits lawsuits against the Palestinian Authority and Palestine Liberation Organization, which lower courts have ruled violates due process. The attacks, which occurred in the early 2000s and 2018, saw over 30 deaths and hundreds of injuries. The Biden administration supports the law, and a decision is expected by July.
