Army imposes restrictions on Israeli schools, work near Gaza

The Israeli military orders that schools be closed in the communities surrounding the Gaza Strip tomorrow in light of ongoing clashes in the Palestinian enclave.

Israelis in the border communities will also only be allowed to go to work if they have ready access to a bomb shelter.

The number of people allowed to gather indoors is also limited to 300.

In addition, farmers will not be allowed to work in their fields near the border, the army says.
