The IDF Home Front Command says it will lift the restrictions imposed amid the latest escalation of fighting with Iran, allowing schools to reopen nationwide.
Starting from 6 a.m. tomorrow, educational activities will be permitted across the country, although in communities near the Lebanon border, they must be held in a building or near a bomb shelter.
Gatherings in areas near the Lebanon border are also restricted to 100 people outdoors and 400 indoors, according to the guidelines.
