Jerusalem, Beit Shemesh and Hura neighborhoods to reportedly be locked down
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleMinisters have reportedly approved a proposal to put curfews in place in two Jerusalem neighborhoods and parts of Beit Shemesh, as well as put some areas of the Bedouin city of Hura on lockdown, amid continuing high infection numbers.
There is no official statement from government authorities on the closures, which are set to go into effect at 11 p.m. tonight according to the unsourced Hebrew-language reports.
The government has been consistently criticized for failing to issue clear and timely instructions to the public, doling out information piecemeal, haphazardly or through media leaks.
