Police have taken down barricades around Bnei Brak, almost two weeks after a closure was imposed due to the high rate of infection in the ultra-Orthodox community of 200,000 near Tel Aviv.
Entrances and exits to the town were closed off with people only allowed in and out to got to work and for essential services.
Police are waiting for the results of a cabinet meeting tonight, which is due to decide on whether to continue the lockdown of the town.
