Finance minister: Defense industries, construction can continue during lockdown

Finance Minister Israel Katz says he persuaded the government to exempt several industries from the lockdown.

“After a difficult fight, we managed to change the framework for shutting down the private sector to allow many factories that were set to close — in the high-tech and defense industries — and [allowes] construction to continue operating during the lockdown,” says Katz, according to Army Radio.
