Suspects in assault on pregnant Arab in Jaffa released to house arrest

Three men accused of attacking a pregnant Arab woman in Jaffa have been released to house arrest after a police request to the Tel Aviv Magistrate's Court. The suspects are alleged to have carried out a racially-motivated assault, including verbal abuse and pepper-spraying the woman, her children, and mother-in-law. The court imposed restrictions on the suspects, including a ban from entering Jaffa and contacting others involved in the case. The decision has sparked criticism from activists who argue it signals leniency toward violence against Arab citizens, while the suspects' lawyer maintains they acted in self-defense.
