Today, @CAATuk launches new judicial review of the UK govt's decision to renew arms sales to the Saudi-led coalition for use in Yemen: "The government may think that the widespread destruction of schools, hospitals and homes can be dismissed as 'isolated incidents' but we do not"

In a landmark decision, the Court of Appeal has ruled that the government acted ‘irrationally’ & ‘unlawfully’ in its arms exports to Saudi Arabia. This is a victory for common sense & the law, but most importantly for the Yemeni people: bit.ly/2Is4pcp #YemenCantWait
The UK Court of Appeal today found that the UK government’s decision to continue licensing exports of military equipment to Saudi Arabia is unlawful. amn.st/6017EqqBv
