A special ministerial committee confirmed overnight Sunday that starting Sunday at noon, a full closure will be enforced in four Jerusalem sections with increased coronavirus infections. The closure will remain in place until Wednesday, April 15.
Area 1 includes the Neve Ya’akov neighborhood, but does not include the Jerusalem envelope community of Kfar Aqab, the Atarot industrial zone, Beit Hanina, Pisgat Ze’ev, and Hashalom neighborhood.
