Netanyahu to discuss school situation amid outbreak worries
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will hold discussions on the situation in the school system this evening, the PMO announces, without saying who will take part or what specifically will be discussed.
A report earlier in the day said the Health Ministry was considering recommending that all high schools and middle schools be shut to stem virus outbreaks.
Nearly 10,000 students and staff are in quarantine due to confirmed cases in schools.
