Under the revised guidelines, residents in northern frontier towns, including the Golan Heights and the Galilee region, are now permitted to hold outdoor gatherings of up to 50 people, a significant increase from the previous limit of 10. Indoor gatherings in these areas have also seen an increase, with the cap raised from 150 to 250 individuals.
In the Haifa Bay area, Jezreel Valley, Carmel, and Wadi Ara, outdoor gatherings of up to 60 people are now allowed, doubling the previous limit of 30.
Despite these changes, other restrictions in various parts of the country remain unchanged as Israel continues its operations against Hezbollah. The easing of measures is seen as an effort to provide some relief to residents while ensuring their safety during the conflict.
