IDF eases wartime restrictions in areas of country under less of a threat from Iran missiles

The IDF Home Front Command is easing wartime restrictions in more areas of the country that are under less of a threat of Iran’s ballistic missiles or Hezbollah’s rocket attacks, allowing schools to reopen there.

Following a fresh assessment, the Home Front Command says that from Sunday at 6 a.m., the activity scale in several more areas in the north and south will be adjusted from “limited activity” to “partial activity.” (A full list of locales can be found on the Home Front Command’s website).

This means that in those areas, educational institutions will be able to operate, provided there is an adequate shelter that can be reached in time. Gatherings of up to 100 people indoors and 50 people outdoors are also permitted, under the same conditions.

In the rest of the country, educational activities are still prohibited. Gatherings are limited to 50 people, provided a shelter can be reached in time, and workplaces can operate under the same conditions.
