Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleA security guard at the Israeli Consulate in New York has tested positive for COVID-19 and has entered home quarantine to prevent spreading the virus, the Foreign Ministry says.
He is the bodyguard of Consular General Dani Dayan, who has entered quarantine.
The security detail has not been in contact with Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations Danny Danon for two weeks.
An MFA spokesperson adds that it’s currently unclear how many other consulate workers must self-quarantine, and they’re checking who else he had been in contact with.
