9/11 Lawsuit Against Saudi Arabia to Move Forward, Judge Rules

HeadlineMar 29, 2018

A federal judge in Manhattan has denied a motion from Saudi Arabia to dismiss lawsuits accusing the Saudis of providing financial support to those responsible for the September 11 attacks. His decision Wednesday means the lawsuit filed by the victims’ family members can continue. The 9/11 attack was carried out by 19 hijackers, 15 of whom were from Saudi Arabia. The Saudi government has long denied involvement in the attacks.
