Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz on Monday signed off on the Israel Defense Forces’ proposal to cancel emergency measures in the south that had been in place since Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, attack, having been extended multiple times.
The “Special Situation on the Home Front” authorized the IDF’s Home Front Command to impose limits on gatherings and civilian movement.
The declaration did not affect citizens directly but enabled the military to decide on new restrictions quickly.
