On Sunday, 2 Nissan two young men, both residents of Kiryat Arba in their 20’s, were issued administrative orders banning them from entering the regions of Yehuda and Shomron for one year. The orders were signed by out-going IDF Central Command Major-General Nitzan Alon. One of the youths has also been banned from entering Jerusalem for a year by an order signed by Commander of the Home Front Command, Major-General Eyal Eisenberg.
These are only the newest in a long list of youths, including Meir Ettinger, who is being represented by Honenu, who have been issued administrative orders banning them from entering regions within Yehuda, Shomron and Jerusalem.
Honenu strongly criticizes the orders: “As the government continues to focus on nationalist Jews, the Jewish Department of the ISA (Israel Security Agency – Shin Bet) and the Department of Nationalist Crime in the Central Unit of the Yehuda and Shomron Police are issuing administrative orders instead of thoroughly investigating and bringing cases to court. They are paying lip-service to judicial proceedings. We call on the ISA and the Israeli Police to deal with genuine criminals.”
