Israel on Tuesday barred residents from leaving home for "non-essential" reasons and stopped night-time public transport, tightening already strict measures to fight the spread of coronavirus.
A health ministry directive ordered people to stay at home unless going out to buy food or medicine, seeking medical attention, or travelling to workplaces where no more than 10 people are present.
"You must not leave your homes to visit parks, playgrounds, the beach, the pool or libraries," a ministry statement said.
"You should maintain social contacts by media and not entertain friends or family unless they live in your building."
