'They're throwing us out on the street': A disabled man, a mental health patient, and a mother of children will be left homeless
The Housing Ministry is resuming evictions from public housing after a five-year freeze. Four clear welfare cases are expected to be evicted soon: Moran Amram, a mother of three from Beit Shemesh; Asaf Freinta, a mental health patient from Tivon; Shahar Levi, a disabled man with diabetes and visual impairment; and Avishag Paroy, a single mother from Holon. Activists and MKs accuse the committee established to protect the vulnerable of being abandoned. The Housing Ministry claims the evictions are being carried out according to the rules.
The Housing Ministry is resuming evictions from public housing after a five-year freeze, and tenants across the country report receiving eviction orders in recent months. Four stories of clear welfare cases expected to be evicted soon reached 'Davar'. Moran Amram (40), a mother of three from Beit Shemesh, lives in an apartment where her grandmother and mother lived, and is trying to obtain eligibility as a continuation daughter, but was rejected. Her eviction is expected on Monday. Asaf Freinta (44), a mental health patient from Tivon, raises his son alone in the apartment where his mother lived, and is expected to be evicted next week. Shahar Levi (50), a disabled man with diabetes and visual impairment, has been fighting for his eligibility for 12 years, and is expected to be evicted in November. Avishag Paroy (47), a single mother from Holon, is supposed to be evicted in two weeks. Activists and MKs accuse the committee established in 2021 to examine the cases of being abandoned. The Housing Ministry claims the evictions are being carried out according to the rules.
