After criticism, Lapid nixes planned vacation in northern Israel

Prime Minister Yair Lapid has called off his vacation in northern Israel planned for later today, Hebrew media reports.

The cancellation comes after Lapid was criticized for intending to go on a getaway while residents of Gaza-area communities have their movement severely restricted by road closures ordered by his government, amid threats posed by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group.
