Developer Must Pay NIS 444,000 for Undelivered Penthouse

A real estate developer has been ordered to pay NIS 443,775 in compensation to a couple for a penthouse in Petah Tikva that is over three years late. The Herzliya Magistrate's Court rejected the developer's claim of force majeure due to the "Swords of Iron" war, stating the delay predated the conflict.
