Israelis celebrating the Jewish Passover holiday this week will hold the 'seder', the traditional meal celebrating freedom from biblical slavery, confined to their homes under a national coronavirus lockdown.

JERUSALEM - Israelis celebrating the Jewish Passover holiday this week will hold the “seder”, the traditional meal celebrating freedom from biblical slavery, confined to their homes under a national coronavirus lockdown.

Netanyahu said a ban on inter-city travel would go into effect on Tuesday afternoon and end on Friday morning. At the seder, participants recount with prayers, songs and a festive meal the exodus of the Israelites from slavery in Egypt. Under restrictions already in place, Israelis have been instructed by the government to venture no more than 100 metres from home, with the exception of those going to workplaces that are still open or to shop for groceries or medicine.

Restrictions will be eased according to “the level of risk among the population,” he said, with those most vulnerable remaining in isolation longest.
