Representing victims of the October 7 Attack, Shurat HaDin joined the opposition to the petition filed by far-left Israeli organizations, demanding the complete shutting down of "Sde-Teiman" facility, where murderous Hamas detainees are held, due to alleged complaints regarding the confinement conditions and maltreatment of the detainees. Shurat HaDin has appeared before the Supreme Court, arguing that shutting down the facility will mean the release of Hamas criminals back into Gaza, since Israel lacks any alternative facility to imprison the thousands of Hamas detainees. Furthermore, Shurat HaDin argued that the entire petition was based on unsubstantiated UNRWA reports and that the biased UN agency was itself saturated with Hamas members and therefore could not be trusted. The petition is still pending
