IDF Rear Command has announced (Sunday) further loosening of restrictions on activity and assembly in areas outside the conflict zones in the north and south, with the exception of the southern cities of Ashkelon and Netivot, where a 15,000 person assembly restriction is still in place.
Assembly rules are now stricter in the northern conflict zone than in the Gaza Perimeter, with only 30 people allowed to assemble in open areas, as opposed to 100 in the Perimeter.
Rules for going to work and school are the same, on condition that there are safe areas to run to in time of emergency.
