FIGHTING LEGAL BATTLES AGAINST TERROR, ANTISEMITISM &
DE-LEGITIMIZATION OF ISRAEL
The International Legal Forum (ILF) is an independent, Israel-based NGO and pro-active global network of over 4,000 lawyers and activists in 40 countries, who have been at the forefront of the legal battle for Israel in the wake of the October 7th massacre by Hamas, while combating terror, BDS, and antisemitism in the international legal arena.

The appeal stems from the 2018 murder of Ari Fuld, a 45-year-old Israeli-American father of four, who was stabbed to death by a Palestinian terrorist, while standing outside a grocery store in Gush Etzion Junction, central Israel.
