The family pointed out that the Supreme Court had issued a decree in 2016, ordering the evacuation of the family members from the house, except for the parents "Nora and Mustafa", and therefore the court dispersed the family, preventing the children from living with their parents.
In 2019, the settlement association used a new prosecution against the family, where it delivered a "new eviction decision", under the pretext of not being permanently present in the house, and Ms. Nora pointed out that during 2018 she suffered from back pains and was unable to move and walk for 3 months and had to stay with her children during the treatment period, and despite presenting the medical documents, the Supreme Court rejected them and decided to evict the family from their home in favor of the settlers.
