Health Ministry gives okay to reopen border crossing with Egypt

The Health Ministry gives the okay to reopening of the Taba border crossing with Egypt, which has been shuttered since April, due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The ministry says its consent is conditioned on those returning from the Sinai Peninsula quarantining for 14 days.

Interior Minister Aryeh Deri will hold talks on the matter tomorrow, according to Hebrew media reports.
