A US appeals court has upheld a decision blocking President Donald Trump's revised "travel ban" on people from six mainly Muslim nations.Ruling on a case brought by the state of Hawaii, the appeal judges found that the executive order violated existing immigration legislation
It is a further legal setback for the president's efforts to get the ban he promised his supporters.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions said he disagreed with the ruling.
"President Trump's executive order is well within his lawful authority to keep the nation safe."
He added: "Recent attacks confirm that the threat to our nation is immediate and real."
The dispute may end up being decided in the US Supreme Court.
