IDF Demands: Settler must remain under house arrest for six months, with no way to support his growing family!
Summary of Makor Rishon, 16.06.2026
Attorney Adi Kedar, from the Honenu Legal Organization, submitted a sharp objection to Central Command Major General Avi Blut’s administrative order requiring a settler to spend six months under house arrest at his deaf mother-in-law’s home.
Kedar argues the order is unenforceable, disconnected from reality, and causes severe harm to the settler’s family and livelihood. The mother-in-law is a deaf widow who communicates only through lip reading and lives alone, making cohabitation difficult and halachically prohibited due to isolation concerns.
The settler, a father of three with a pregnant wife, is the sole breadwinner and a farmer who must constantly manage his sheep farm, making the order impractical. Kedar condemns the order as a violation of human rights and plans to appeal it in court, criticizing the security establishment’s disregard for the settler’s family situation and freedom.
