What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Ma’aleh Adumim Municipality petitioned the High Court of Justice against a legal opinion from the Attorney-General’s Office. That opinion advised state authorities to postpone a tender for 1,234 homes in the justice ministry settlement until after the October 27 election. The Israel Land Authority and the Construction and Housing Ministry administer the tender, which currently has a deadline of October 19. The municipality argued that delaying the tender constitutes political interference.
