A Netanya Magistrate's Court issued an injunction on Thursday, preventing the National Council for Planning and Building from demolishing homes belonging to the Abu Mutair family in the city of Tayibe. The order remains in effect indefinitely, pending a final decision on the case.
The court's decision followed an urgent petition filed by the family, challenging the legality of demolition orders issued over 20 years ago. The homes now serve as the sole residences for five families, including children, women, and men, according to lawyer Dr. Qais Nasser.
The petition highlighted humanitarian and health concerns, including serious illnesses affecting two residents, alongside legal arguments questioning the validity of the demolition orders. Lawyer Nasser stated that efforts will continue in coordination with the families, the Tayibe municipality, and relevant authorities to regulate the neighborhood and work towards licensing the homes.
