WEST BANK (Dispatches) – Several hundred people have demonstrated in Tel Aviv against new coronavirus restrictions and vaccines by the occupying regime as positive cases and hospitalizations rose to levels not seen in months. The Zionist regime’s health ministry reported Saturday that 2,435 new Covid cases had been recorded the day before — the highest number since March — driven by the more contagious Delta variant. There were 326 hospitalizations, the highest since April. The rise in infections flies in the face of the regime’s ‘efforts’ to vaccinate large number of Zionists in the occupied territories.
