IDF: Coronavirus to Hold in Israel for At Least One Year

Maj. Gen. Tamir Yadea, Commander of the Internal Front in the Israeli Defense Forces ( IDF) affirmed that the crisis of the Coronavirus will prolong to the months to come, warning that the threats of the deadly virus may hold in Israel for at least one year.

Yadea urged the Israelis not to fancy that the threats of the Coronavirus will clear out in the short range, adding that the normal life won't resume after the Easter. The Jews celebrate the Easter in the days from April 8 to 16.

Yadea stressed that it is better to inform the people on a strategy to confront the virus not to manipulate them on how to leave out quarantine.

The Commander of the Internal Commandment in Israel added that the economic lockdown couldn't continue for a long time, suggesting that Israel should be pided to three areas, the first one cooled in green which indicate the less infected area in Israel.

The second area should be colored in yellow which means high rate infections with the Coronavirus. The red area means the highest infected district compared with the other areas. He revealed that there are twelve red areas now in Israel.

The districts include Jerusalem, Beni Barak, an uptown in Tel Aviv, the capital city of Israel along with ten other areas but he did not name them.

The Commander affirmed that the target of the Israeli government must extend to prevent converting the safer areas to red ones. He urged authorities to mitigate the strict measurements in selectively and gradually.

He claimed that the removing of the hard regulations linked to the Coronavirus should depend on the color of the area and other criteria such as the density of population, the social and economic stances, behavior of the residents, percentage of the old people and effectiveness of local authorities.

Furthermore, the Israeli authorities imposed full lockdown throughout the country.
