Israel To Allow Stores To Open As of Sunday With Only Four Customers Allowed Inside At A Time

YULI EDELSTEIN

After hours of debating the issue, the Corona-cabinet has decided to allow stores to be opened as of Sunday morning in cities that have a low morbidity rate and are considered “green”. The decision, which was made on Wednesday evening, was approved by the majority of the Ministers who sit in the Corona-cabinet, but Health Minister Yuli Edelstein voted against the move.

Following the meeting, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke to the press about the decision and said the following.

“We just convened the Corona Cabinet. Just as we promised at the previous meeting, we will open street stores this coming Sunday. We are allowing four customers at a time to enter any given store, no more.

“We also know that there has been a certain increase in morbidity; therefore, if we see this coming weekend, ahead of the major third stage, that there is an increase in morbidity, we will need to stop and maybe tighten the restrictions.

“At this stage, this is our decision – opening the stores and allowing four customers. And I request that everyone respect these rules.”
