"The transition from stage to stage of easing the restrictions will be determined by the data on the incidence, and not by specific dates," the press service of RIA Novosti reports.

According to the plan of the Israeli government, at least 14 days should elapse between each new stage.

At the same time, it is permissible to reduce the number of stages from nine to five.

"Before proceeding to the next stage, an operational meeting will be held, at which the current situation will be checked for compliance with the indicators set in the program," the government added.

Earlier it was reported that Israel decided to start the first stage of quarantine mitigation from October 18.
