Israel Shuts Schools and Limits Gatherings in the North

Israel has implemented new restrictions on public activities in northern regions, including parts of the Golan Heights, as tensions with Hezbollah intensify. According to an announcement by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), the restrictions took effect at 6 a.m. Sunday and will remain in place through Monday evening.

During this period, schools in the affected areas will remain closed, and public gatherings will be limited to 10 people outdoors and 100 people indoors. Beaches in the region will also be off-limits to the public, though work-related activities may continue provided that access to nearby shelters is available.

The restrictions impact areas such as the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights and the upper and lower Galilee. These measures follow a previous military warning about the potential for a Hezbollah attack in the near future, as hostilities in the region continue to escalate.
