A federal judge ruled that Saudi Arabia can be sued by 9/11 victims' families. The families allege Saudi Arabia supported the hijackers. The judge found sufficient evidence suggesting two Saudi citizens aided the hijackers, despite Saudi Arabia's claims of sovereign immunity. This decision, after years of litigation, allows the families to proceed with their lawsuit, seeking accountability and justice for the loss of their loved ones in the 9/11 attacks. The ruling marks a significant step towards holding Saudi Arabia potentially responsible for its alleged role in the tragedy.
