Netanyahu: No decision on quarantine for US flights
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel remains in control of the situation, and says discussions are ongoing regarding quarantine restrictions on travelers from anywhere, amid speculation that Israel would restrict travel from the US.
“If we take more steps, it will be on all countries,” he says.
“We are not talking about closing our gates, we are are taking about quarantine for those who come from abroad,” he says.
He says the US understands the steps Israel is taking.
“This is not an easy decision. Health is first. It ensures the economy,” he says.
