Egypt is also heading for new restrictions amid a new wave
Israel is headed for renewed lockdown Sunday amid the country’s third wave of the pandemic, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday.
The announcement came after Israel’s Cabinet voted to approve a Health Ministry proposal to send the country back into lockdown until fewer than 1,000 new cases per day emerge. There were more than 4,000 new cases recorded Tuesday.
