Israel said it would open the gate for foreign tourism groups in the middle of a covid case surge

Jerusalem: Israel said he would immediately reopen the gate to foreign tourism groups, even when it fought with one of the highest levels of Coronavirus infection in the world.
The State Ministry of Tourism on Sunday said it would begin to allow organized tour groups to the country starting September 19.
Tourists must be vaccinated against the Coronavirus, presenting a negative PCR test before their flight and undergoing PCR and serological testing on arrival.
Visitors must quarantine in their hotel until the results of the test return, a process is expected to take no more than 24 hours.
Tourists from a handful of “red” countries with high infection rates, including Turkey and Brazil will not be allowed to visit for now.
Israel launched a similar program in May after vaccinating most of the population since the beginning of this year.
But this program was suspended in August because the Delta variant began to spread.
In recent weeks, the country had begun to give a booster shot to anyone who was vaccinated for five months ago.
This campaign has shown signs of controlling the Delta outbreak, allowing the government to start allowing tourists to return.
