There will be no changes to guidelines for residents of the Golan Heights, local authorities say, following a fresh assessment held by the military.
Earlier, Army Radio reported that the IDF was considering imposing restrictions on gatherings and schools following the fall of the Assad regime in Syria.
The Golan Regional Council in a statement to residents says that a decision has been made by the army to not change the restrictions.
The statement also tells citizens that sounds of explosions may be heard as Israeli forces carry out operations in the buffer zone between Israel and Syria.
