American activist and self-described Gaza humanitarian donor Fergie Chambers, detained since his arrest in Ibiza in July, faces an extradition case proceeding in Spanish courts after Madrid declined to block the US request at a preliminary stage; his lawyers argue extradition would set a 'dangerous precedent' for pro-Palestinian advocacy. Separately, Spain allowed a US extradition case to proceed against alleged Hamas donor James Cox Chambers (also known as Fergie Chambers), accused of funneling $7.5 million to the group. In a related move, the Trump administration asked the US Supreme Court to reverse a lower court's decision ordering the release of a detained pro-Palestinian Georgetown scholar, part of a broader pattern of US legal action against pro-Palestinian activists and donors.
