End of the 'Yashar-El' Kingdom: The territory of the 'state' that took over areas in the Galilee is evacuated
Authorities enforced a demolition order at an illegal compound in Rosh Pina, which served the 'Yashar-El Kingdom' – a group that declared itself a sovereign state. Dozens of residents were evacuated, including 15 children.
The Israel Land Enforcement Authority enforced a demolition order this morning (Wednesday) at an illegal compound in Rosh Pina, which served the 'Yashar-El Kingdom' – a group that declared itself a supposedly sovereign state established in 2022. Dozens of 'subjects' living in buses were evacuated from the area, including 15 children. The demolition order was issued in September 2023 by the Kinneret Local Planning and Building Committee, and the Safed Magistrate's Court recently ruled that there is no stay of execution. The group is led by Shai Karmosta, who calls himself 'the king'. The group, suspected of being a cult, fenced off the area, placed a trailer and solar panels, and a large number of animals were found during the evacuation. The kingdom advocates for individual sovereignty and polyarchy, where each member is considered a sovereign.
