A day after a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah took effect, the IDF Home Front Command has lifted gathering restrictions across central Israel, the Wadi Ara area, Carmel, and Jezreel Valley.

The restrictions, which limited the number of people allowed at indoor and outdoor gatherings, were put in place amid rocket fire from Hezbollah.

Restrictions still remain in various areas of northern Israel. Schools will remain closed in the northern frontier towns and Golan Heights.
