The IDF Home Front Command says it has lifted all remaining restrictions on Israel’s northern frontier communities, which had been imposed during the fighting with Hezbollah.
The move was approved by Defense Minister Israel Katz following an assessment held by the Home Front Command with IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi.
The Home Front Command has adjusted the activity scale in the northern frontier communities from “partial activity” to “full activity.”
Displaced Israeli residents of northern Israel are set to return to their homes beginning March 2.
