Jerusalem, Mar 7 (EFE), (Camera: Atef Safadi).- Israel took the most significant step in its post-vaccination relaxation of coronavirus restrictions on Sunday as cafes, bars and restaurants reopened, travel rules were eased and university students were allowed back in classrooms, among other measures, which prioritize those who are immunized against the coronavirus.With more than 50% of the population inoculated with at least the first dose of the vaccine, restaurants will be able to receive customers who present the so-called "green passport" given to those who have recovered from Covid-19 or have received the second dose within the past week.Capacity limits of 75% have been set and those who do not present the certificate required for admission can be seated at outdoor tables.From Sunday, venues for cultural events can also open, but are not allowed to exceed 50% capacity, while only those carrying a green pass are allowed in.FOOTAGE OF CAFES AND RESTAURANTS IN ISRAEL.
