Health Ministry paints high infection towns red

The Health Ministry has released a list of what it says are “red cities” by the traffic light rubric approved by ministers on Sunday, though the plan will not go into effect until next week.

Most of the towns are Arab-majority locales as well as some ultra-Orthodox cities.

The list includes: Tiberias, Beitar Ilit, Jatt, Umm al-Fahm, Immanuel, Kafr Qasem, Kafr Kara, Tira and the Shaar Hanegev Regional Council, as well as others.
