Israel is set to go through a heatwave for the next few days, with a rise in temperatures in most areas of the country, according to the Health Ministry.

The ministry calls on the general public, and particularly the elderly population, children, pregnant women, and patients with chronic diseases, to be careful and avoid exposure to heat and the sun.
