Palestinian authorities have asked the US Supreme Court to halt a $656 million payment to victims of the Second Intifada. The payment was ordered as restitution for attacks carried out during the early 2000s. The Palestinian Authority and the Palestine Liberation Organization are appealing a lower court's decision that found them liable for the attacks.
The Supreme Court's involvement follows a series of legal maneuvers. The Palestinian entities initially sought relief from the US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit, which denied their request. The Supreme Court's decision to hear the case or not will determine whether the payment is paused during the appeal process.
The Supreme Court has not yet indicated whether it will take up the case. The outcome will significantly impact both the Palestinian authorities and the US terror victims awaiting compensation.
