Only 2,000 air travellers will enter our country daily: Israel
The Israeli government has allowed up to 2,000 foreign air travellers to enter the country every day, say media reports on Monday.
A government statement quoted the prime minister’s office and the health ministry as saying, “The ministerial cabinet has endorsed the transport minister’s plan for inbound and outgoing flights.
“Up to 2,000 people will be able to fly into Israel every day.”
Meanwhile, the defence ministry has been tasked with contracting hotels where the travellers will be quarantined.
Israel largely closed Ben Gurion Airport, the Jewish state’s main gateway, on January 25 to prevent mutant coronavirus strains from entering the country.
