Israel Extends Lockdown by 4 Days

Israeli officials voted to extend the current lockdown by four additional days. Israel is currently in what health officials have called the “worst infection wave” since the pandemic began last March. Ben Gurion Airport will remain closed for another seven days. Prime Minister Netanyahu reportedly said “The world is under an intense attack by British and South African mutations. Health systems in many countries are on the verge of collapse and in Israel it has been stretched to its maximum … We can vaccinate the public thanks to the millions of vaccines we brought to Israel, within a week we will inoculate a million more,” he added. Please continue to pray for Israel’s fight against the Coronavirus pandemic. Please also continue to pray for wisdom for Israeli officials as they face tough decisions. Lastly, please pray for healing for all who are infected!
