Netanyahu says ‘minimal necessary’ restrictions on the way

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel will do the minimum needed to halt the spread of the virus, out of fear for damage to the economy.

“The cost of a mistake to health and the economy  can both be very bad. We’ll place the minimum restrictions necessary to stop the spread of the virus and preserve the economy,” he says.

He adds that anyone hurt by the moves will be compensated.
