Friday, December 13, 2024, 11:25 Today (Friday), administrative detainee Itiel Ben Tzuriya was released from detention three months early following the cancelation of the detention order by Defense Minister Yisrael Katz. Although sources in the security services claimed that Ben Tzuriya was not an administrative detainee, Honenu presented the original order that had been signed by former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and the cancelation signed by Minister Katz.
This is the first cancelation of an administrative order that Minister Katz has signed. In late November, Minister Katz announced that he would not sign new administrative detention orders for Jewish Yehuda and Shomron residents. With the release of Ben Tzuria, the number of Jewish administrative detainees, some of whom are married and have children, stands at seven.
