AP (Jerusalem) 1238/04 - Jubran at al. v. Minister of Interior et al. Petition for Order Nisi

HaMoked petitions against the Interior Ministry’s new policy not to grant a status in Israel to Israeli residents’ children who were born in the Occupied Territories, and to children registered in the population registry in the Occupied Territories even if they were born in Israel. These children who live with the parent who is an Israeli resident are given, at the most, a temporary permit to stay in the country, meaning that they are not entitled to social benefits and national health insurance, and in many cases also end up separated from one of their parents.
