Israel was an early trailblazer of a national vaccine rollout and among the first countries to demand a vaccination certificate, which it called the green pass, to enter a range of facilities.
Israel will allow unvaccinated tourists entry for the first time since the pandemic began as infections and deaths caused by the coronavirus decline, Prime Minister Naftali Bennett announced on Sunday.
"We are seeing a consistent decline in morbidity data," Bennett said.
Israel shut its borders to travellers in early 2020 as the coronavirus spread worldwide. "It is time to gradually open what we were the first in the world to close," the Prime Minister said.
The Jewish state was also an early trailblazer of a national vaccine rollout and among the first countries to demand a vaccination certificate, which it called the green pass, to enter a range of facilities.
