To limit the spread of the coronavirus, Israelis will be required to wear face masks outdoors under new orders greenlit by the government on April 7.
Beginning April 12, all Israelis leaving their homes should use masks or cloths that cover their nose and mouth. Men who grow beards for religious purposes will have the option of custom-made masks that will allow them to keep their facial hair, Health Ministry Associate Director-General Itamar Grotto said April 6.
