Erdan: Full lockdown is inevitable
Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan is reportedly telling police and other domestic security agencies that a full lockdown of the country is on the way.
“We need to prepare for the possibility of a full shutdown, this is an inevitable decision,” he says, according to Army Radio.
Israel has been inching toward fully locking down the country, but the government has so far avoided imposing one, instead urging Israelis to remain at home, but allowing people to leave for a variety of reasons.
