📰 The High Court in London will begin hearing WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange's final UK appeal against extradition to the United States to face trial over publishing secret military and diplomatic files.

Washington wants the 52-year-old Australian citizen extradited after he was charged there multiple times between 2018 and 2020 in connection with WikiLeaks' 2010 publication of files relating to the US-led wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

If he loses the two-day hearing, Assange will have exhausted all UK appeals and will enter the extradition process, although his team have indicated they will appeal to European courts.
