Netanyahu to hold talks on tightening virus lockdown

Prime Minister Netanyahu will hold consultations next week on tightening the national coronavirus lockdown, his office says.

The talks will focus on imposing a “tight and short lockdown that will allow a quick reopening of the economy,” according to a statement from the Prime Minister’s Office.

The lockdown came into force on Sunday evening, but has yet to bring down daily infections.
