Ministers expected to approve weddings of up to 40 people — TV
The so-called coronavirus cabinet is expected to allow up to 40 people to attend weddings when it convenes this week, according to Channel 12 news, despite concerns such gatherings could lead to fresh outbreaks of coronavirus as Israel begins to crawl out of a weeks-long lockdown.
Under the plan to be approved by ministers, weddings can be held in two socially distanced “capsules” — one for the bride and one for the groom — of up to 20 people each, the network reports.
