HaMoked petitions the HCJ in the matter of a father and his young son who wish to return home to the Gaza Strip where the wife and baby daughter are located, after Israel stipulated passage would be allowed only upon the father undertaking never to return to the West Bank: HaMoked objects to the new policy whereby Israel abuses the distress of Palestinian families who are split between the Gaza Strip and West Bank as a means to pressure Palestinians to move from the West Bank to the Gaza Strip permanently

In response to HaMoked's petition demanding that a bride and her parents be permitted to travel from the Gaza Strip to the West Bank for the wedding, the state demanded that the Petitioners deposit a NIS 20,000 guarantee ensuring that after the wedding they would all return to the Gaza Strip, including the bride: The state accuses HaMoked of disingenuous behavior by concealing the true relief requested in the petition which, according to the state, is the “change of residence” from the Gaza Strip to the West Bank

The High Court of Justice (HCJ) partially accepted a petition submitted by HaMoked and will enable the children of a family from East Jerusalem to visit their sick grandmother who lives in the Gaza Strip: For over two and a half years the military has refused to let the relatives attend to the sick grandmother in the Gaza Strip; reneged on its own undertakings, cancelled authorizations it has given; and justified its refusal on vague security grounds
