proscribe

A Lebanese man has gone on trial in Celle, northern Germany, accused of being a member of Hezbollah - a Shia Muslim group whose military wing is proscribed as a terrorist organisation by the EU.

This would be proscribed by the Posse Comitatus Act, which prohibits federal armed forces from performing law enforcement activities.

Ringleader Dylan Earl was recruited by the Wagner Group, a mercenary organisation that acts on behalf of the Russian state and is proscribed by the UK government as a terrorist organisation.

The UK government proscribed it as a terrorist group in September 2023.

Israel also alleged that hundreds of Unrwa staff were members of proscribed terrorist groups, but an independent review commissioned by the UN found it had not provided evidence to support its claim.
