Israel renews indoor mask mandate amid COVID-19 surge
After registering its highest daily caseload in more than two months, Israel has reimposed a mandate on mask usage indoors.
Israel is restoring requirements on indoor masks following a jump in COVID-19 cases and concerns about the fast-spreading Delta variant.
Beginning at noon Friday, masks are required in all indoor spaces, with the exception of homes. Children under the age of 7 do not have to wear a mask, nor are they required during physical exercise.
