The coronavirus cabinet decided on Monday to freeze nearly all easing of restrictions that were expected in the coming days as the number of active cases continues to climb across the country.
"What we decided to do, first of all, is to hit the emergency brake," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said. "We stopped all of the measures to ease restrictions that we were going to apply in the coming days. We will check this again next week.”
Nu varnar man för en andra våg och en ny nedstängning.
