The Director General at the Health Ministry, Prof. Hezi Levy, said in a press briefing that an increase in coronavirus infections was noted in the general sector, in addition to the Arab or ultra-Orthodox sectors.
"We are seeing more cities [with high infection rates] and more cities [with medium infection rates]." According to Prof. Levy, the Health Ministry is considering all possible restrictions, including imposing a closure on Hanukkah as well as a night curfew.
