The struggle over the evacuation of Herzliya Airport is intensifying, as real estate developers who purchased land in the area for 1.5 billion shekels are considering suing the state following the postponement of the evacuation. During a discussion at the Supreme Court, a delay of at least six months from the original date of August 31, 2027, was proposed, raising concerns among developers about further delays in land transfer and advancement of planned projects. The developers, who have already begun planning the buildings, argue that a delay could cause them significant economic damages, especially if the state fails to meet its commitments. The state acknowledged that there is no complete alternative to the aviation activity at the site but insists on its evacuation to promote residential construction plans. Legal disputes may lead to compensation claims from the developers, but there is uncertainty regarding the chances of success due to their commitments in the tenders. The Supreme Court's decision is expected to affect not only the aviation sector but also land reserves for construction in the central region.
