IDF says restrictions on daily life likely to be removed in coming hours
Judah Ari Gross is The Times of Israel's religions and Diaspora affairs correspondent.
IDF Spokesperson Hidai Zilberman says that in the coming hours, the IDF Home Front Command is expected to remove some of its restrictions on daily life in southern and central Israel, some of which have been in place since the outbreak of fighting on May 10.
However, the IDF ground troops and other reinforcements deployed to the Gaza border will largely remain in place over the weekend, Zilberman says.
