Police said to tell ministers that nighttime curfew will have limited effectiveness

Police warn the high-level coronavirus cabinet that imposing a nighttime curfew nationwide will be “a big investment with low effectiveness,” according to Hebrew media reports.

Police representatives tell ministers that a curfew will only be effective in limited areas for a limited time in bringing down coronavirus infections, the reports say.

Police also reportedly complain they lack the authority to enforce violations of the lockdown in private homes.
