Gantz: Cancel hotel quarantine requirement for those tested at airport

Defense Minister Benny Gantz urges the government to allow Israelis who enter the country to quarantine at home, on condition they undergo a COVID-19 test at the airport.

The government is currently requiring those who enter the country to self-isolate at state-run facilities, though the rule appears to be only selectively enforced.

Gantz will not support extending this order, his office says.
