The IDF announced the removal of all remaining civil-defense restrictions on communities along the confrontation line (Kav Ha'Omek), effective Monday, June 22, at 06:00 Jerusalem. The change shifts the area from partial activity to full activity ("green" routine status), bringing all of Israel to the same unrestricted posture. The order includes Sifsufa, Meron, Or HaGanuz, Bar Yochai, Yesud HaMa'ala, Kisra-Sumei, Beit Jann, and Sde Eliezer, the IDF said.
The Home Front Command announced the full removal of restrictions on Israel's northern frontline communities, effective Monday at 06:00 Jerusalem. The change — shifting from partial activity to full activity (the 'green' routine tier) — was confirmed by an IDF spokesperson at 21:35 Sunday evening, correcting earlier reports that suggested immediate implementation tonight.
The affected communities include Sifsufa, Meron, Or HaGanuz, Bar Yochai, Yesud HaMa'ala, Kisra-Sumei, Beit Jann, and Sde Eliezer. With this step, the entire country operates under the same unrestricted Home Front Command status, marking a significant de-escalation in civil-defense posture after weeks of heightened restrictions along the northern border.
As The Zioneer reported at 21:21 Sunday, the IDF initially signaled the move broadly; the official detailed announcement followed at 21:35, specifying the exact transition time and the list of communities. No further restrictions remain in effect on the civilian front, though residents are instructed to continue following Home Front Command guidance should any localized alerts arise.
