Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made the announcement in a televised speech on Sunday, September 13 saying from Friday, the eve of the Jewish New Year, schools, restaurants, shopping centres and hotels will shut down and restrictions on movement will be imposed. 

‘Our goal is to stop the increase (in cases) and lower morbidity,’ Mr Netanyahu said.
