All restrictions lifted: Israel to return to full normalcy as of Saturday night

Wait 5 sec.

The IDF and Home Front Command announce that all defensive restrictions will be lifted across Israel starting Saturday night, allowing full activity, large gatherings, and the resumption of Memorial Day, Independence Day events, and in-person schooling. (Arutz Sheva-Israel National News' North American desk is keeping you updated until the start of Shabbat in New York. The time posted automatically on all Israel National News articles, however, is Israeli time.)
