The Illegal Palestinian School that Regavim is Petitioning Against
Regavim movement 05.09.2021
It took a mere 12 months for the Palestinian Authority to build this enormous, impressive, and illegal school in eastern Gush Etzion.
As soon as construction was underway, the Regavim Movement petitioned the Jerusalem District Court – since the Israeli authorities did absolutely nothing to prevent yet another land grab.
In response to Regavim's petition, the State representatives told the judges that Stop Work Orders and demolition orders had been issued against the illegal structure, however they refused to commit to a timetable of when the law would be enforced. Unfortunately, the Court accepted the State’s claims and rejected the petition.
The months passed by, construction was completed, and students are now pouring into the school.
Following this, Regavim decided to file another petition with the Court, stating: "Rather than rewarding illegal activity, the State should be made to close down the school!"
