Tubasi Family’s Return Home Postponed Despite High Court Order
According to a report in Haaretz, two months after its evacuation, the Tubasi family was supposed to return to its homes on the hill opposite the village of Jalud, in accordance with a High Court of Justice order. However, the required coordination with the military was postponed to an unspecified date next week.
Key facts
- •Court: High Court of Justice — the Supreme Court sitting as the High Court of Justice
- •Publication: September 27, 2026
- •Family: Tubasi
- •Location: A hill opposite the village of Jalud, Area B
- •The case number is not specified in the source
- •No monetary sums or statutory provisions were specified
What Happened
The family’s homes are located in Area B, in an area to which a closed military zone order has been applied in recent months. The report indicates that the return required coordination with the military, but the scheduled date was postponed. The exact date of the family’s return was not specified.
What the Court Ordered
The article states that the High Court of Justice ordered that the Tubasi family’s return to its homes be ensured. However, the case number, the date of the judicial decision, its precise wording, and its legal reasoning are not provided in the source. It was also not reported that a new judicial decision had been issued following the delay in implementation.
What Occurred Near the Homes
According to Haaretz, security cameras recorded settlers in the homes on Wednesday evening and again on Thursday. The access roads were once again blocked with stones; witnesses also reported sounds of destruction that could be heard as far as the village. The following day, settlers built a sukkah in the home’s yard, after which Border Police officers dismantled it.
What this means for you
The High Court of Justice’s order concerning the return does not necessarily ensure immediate physical access to the home if state authorities condition it on coordination with the military. For people in a similar situation, a delay in implementation may prolong their separation from their home and leave in place the risk of outsiders entering until the return is arranged. The source does not specify whether the court set a defined deadline for implementation or whether consequences were established for postponing it.
