The US has imposed sanctions on the UK-based direct-action group Palestine Action, designating it as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT), in the latest escalation in the Trump’s administration’s crackdown on groups and individuals critical of Israel.
Palestine Action is now sanctioned in the US "for having materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods and services to or in support of, an act of terrorism", the Department of the Treasury said in a statement on Wednesday.

@laprice Boy, yeah, there's a lot to unpack with #OFAC -- and also #SDGT 's. Some charities have already been shut down by the US Treasury in the past... I could see some #Palestinian relief organizations and others being put in that designation.
