(Gili Yaari /Flash90) On Wednesday, ministers approved removing some Memorial Day restrictions, which included allowing families of the fallen, who do not have the Green Pass, to attend ceremonies. The Green Pass is given to those who are fully vaccinated or have recovered from the coronavirus, granting them entry to public venues not open to others. The new measures, effective as of Thursday, include raising the number of people allowed to gather outdoors from 50 to 100.  The current limit of 20 people indoors remains in place.
