The IDF Home Front Command has eased restrictions in some parts of the Haifa area, allowing schools to resume.

The change in guidelines does not apply to the Krayot area, north of Haifa.

Under the new restrictions, schools in Haifa, Daliyat al-Karmel, Isfiya, and other towns in the Haifa Bay area and Carmel region, will be allowed to operate if an adequate shelter is nearby and can be reached in time.

Restrictions on gatherings have also been eased in those areas, to 30 outdoors and 300 indoors.
