Light snowfall begins in Jerusalem

The first flakes of snow are being reported in southern Jerusalem and the Gush Etzion area.

Traffic police are preparing to close the mountainous roads to Jerusalem with the start of the snowfall, when they will become dangerous.

“Anyone who doesn’t need to get to Jerusalem, please avoid it. Our goal is to avoid the situation where people are stuck on the road on the way to Jerusalem,” a police spokesperson tells Israel Radio.
