The Supreme Court reinstated lawsuits against Palestinian authorities filed by Americans injured or killed in Middle Eastern terrorist attacks. The ruling upholds a 2019 Congressional law allowing these lawsuits, reversing lower court decisions. The cases involve attacks from the early 2000s and 2018, with victims claiming Palestinian involvement or incitement. The Palestinians argued against the lawsuits being heard in U.S. courts. This decision follows previous attempts by Congress to ensure victims' access to legal recourse.
