Israel's Supreme Court has issued an interim order temporarily halting the eviction of a faction led by Rabbi Gershon Eidelman (referred to as "Ger"sh" Markowitz" in the original text) from the Ponevezh Yeshiva. The order came in response to a petition filed by the "Tradition of the Torah" association and Rabbi Eidelman himself.

The eviction, which had been scheduled for the following day, has now been postponed until next Thursday. This means that the group, referred to as "terrorists" in the original text, will be permitted to continue occupying the yeshiva buildings throughout the Sukkot holiday, which includes the festival of Simchat Torah. The court's decision is based on the validity of the temporary order.
