EXCLUSIVE — The federal government is tracking efforts by left-wing activists to hide their connections to the newly-designated terrorist group Palestine Action, a senior State Department official told the Washington Examiner.

The official said Palestine Action, which is originally from the United Kingdom, appears to operate under “basically what is an alias,” a common tactic used by other sanctioned groups. The U.K. and the United States banned providing support to Palestine Action in July 2025 and last August, respectively, but a so-called global affiliate of the group later emerged to organize its same style of property damage attacks, a prior Washington Examiner investigation found.
