In remarks to the
press, Shboul said distancing in places of worship will no longer be required
but the use of masks in closed spaces will remain in place. According to the minister, the use of facial
coverings in open places will no longer be required.
Under the easing of
the pandemic restrictions, which

epidemiological committee, indoor and outdoor assemblies, including parties and
dinning activities, are no longer required to abide by a preset attendance
threshold.
For restaurants and
cafes, the restrictions related to table seating capacity will also be
canceled, the minister added. Shboul also revealed that Ramadan tents and mass
iftar banquets will also be allowed.
The minister also
announced that a campaign will be launched and coordinated by a number of
ministries to revive rituals and activities associated with the holy month
after a two-year hiatus, including social, cultural and sporting activities.
