The nature of "house demolitions" used by the State of Israel in the West Bank and East Jerusalem is discussed in this article. In our opinion, and contrary to the view of the Supreme Court of Israel, such demolition orders are a penal punishment. We argue that this measure violates the fundamental principles of criminal liability as a criminal sanction. Even if this conclusion is not accepted, it is argued that the homelessness of innocent people is illegal. Although it assumes that it is not an unlawful collective measure, it violates the fundamental principle of personal responsibility. The general conclusion of the article is that the examination of the nature of the sanctions should go beyond its labels. The labelling of penal or civil sanctions may not always be true, and labels are sometimes used deliberately or misused to avoid the requirements arising from the real essence of a sanction.
