Israeli rescued after breaking leg during hike that violated virus guidelines

Emergency forces rescued a pair of hikes at the Nahal Kziv nature reserve after one of them broke his leg during the trek, which violated the government’s coronavirus guidelines that bar Israelis from being beyond 100 meters from their homes.

Police say the two hikers were fined NIS 5,000 for the violation and blasted them in a statement for wasting state resources and putting rescue forces in danger.
