Israel to issue travel warning for Italy amid rising coronavirus deaths

The Health Ministry says a travel advisory will be issued for Italy due to a surge of coronavirus cases there.

“We decided there will be travel advisory for Italy,” ministry director-general Moshe Bar Siman-Tov says at a press conference. “We’ll consider in the coming days if those returning from Italy will be in [home] quarantine for 14 days.”

Italy today reported the death of a fifth person in the country from the virus.
