On Thursday, September 19, following a meeting to assess the security situation, the Home Front Command extended the instructions for the population unchanged until September 26. They apply to certain localities, including Otef Aza (with the exception of certain areas). For such areas, special rules are in place, such as limiting outdoor gatherings to 30 people.
Other areas of Israel, highlighted in green on the instructions, are subject to different rules. Here, educational institutions and businesses can operate without restrictions. Mass events are allowed without restrictions on the number of participants, and visiting beaches is not prohibited.
Thus, the situation in different areas of Israel is managed by different instructions of the security agencies, taking into account the characteristics of each area and the level of threat. These measures are aimed at ensuring the safety of the population in conditions of heightened tension.
