Supreme Court Orders IDF to Set Return Timetable for Jenin, Tulkarm Camps
Summarized from Israel National News by baba
Israel's Supreme Court has ordered the IDF to establish a timetable for residents to return to the Jenin, Tulkarm, and Nur Shams camps, despite IDF security concerns. The ruling, made in response to a petition, has drawn sharp criticism from several government ministers, including Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben-Gvir, who called the decision "reckless" and a threat to national security. Officials warned that allowing residents back could lead to the rebuilding of terrorist infrastructure, drawing parallels to the October 7th attacks. The Im Tirtzu movement proposed a 70-year waiting period for residents' return.
