Ministers expected to approve 2 local lockdowns in virus-hit northern areas
Israeli ministers are expected to approve two local lockdowns in the north when they convene this afternoon due to high coronavirus infection rates in those areas.
The areas that will be declared “restricted zones” are the Druze town of Buq’ata in the Golan Heights and an ultra-Orthodox part of Hazor Haglilit, Hebrew media reports say.
According to the Health Ministry, the two locales currently have some of the highest case rates per capita in Israel.
