According to the guidelines, there is no ethical or professional justification for so-called conversion therapy for the purpose of altering someone’s sexual or gender identity, and they require medical professionals to use the pronouns of the gender with which the patient identifies while addressing them, regardless of their identity documents or physical appearance.
They also require hospitals and psychiatric wards to have at least one staff member who underwent training in order to be conscious of transgender people and to offer hospitalization conditions in accordance with their wishes, such as unisex bathrooms.

Police have summoned Sheffi Paz, a well-known activist against asylum seekers, for questioning over a break-in to a preschool for asylum seekers in Tel Aviv.
A male activist was also summoned for questioning in the case. Both are suspected of trespassing and disturbing the peace. Paz said she intends to ignore the summons.
The two activists went to the city’s new central bus station, where the preschool is located, on Monday to protest against medical staffers who were there to treat migrants with no legal status in Israel. The day before, they had confronted the same staffers at the Levinsky Clinic.
