Tel Aviv police issued administrative closure orders to a restaurant on Ibn Gvirol Street and a food business on Parshat Drakhim Street over the suspected hiring of illegal residents. Three illegal residents were arrested; the business owners were detained for questioning. The orders were announced Thursday morning.
Tel Aviv District police executed administrative closure orders Thursday morning against two food businesses for allegedly employing illegal residents without permits. The closure orders target a restaurant on Ibn Gvirol Street and a food vendor on Parshat Drakhim Street, both in central Tel Aviv. Three illegal residents were arrested on site; the employers were detained for questioning. Administrative closures are a civil-enforcement tool allowing police to shutter businesses for up to 30 days without a criminal conviction, typically used against offenses linked to illegal residency and labor law violations. As The Zioneer reported on June 7, Border Police arrested seven illegal residents at a construction site in the Beit Hanina neighborhood of East Jerusalem in a separate operation, underscoring the broader enforcement push. It remains unclear whether the two Tel Aviv businesses are linked to a specific smuggling or hiring network.
