The Union of Tiberias Lakeshore Municipalities announced on Monday evening that all beaches along the Sea of Galilee remain open to the public, refuting any rumors or instructions regarding their closure. The union clarified that the lake's water is flowing, not stagnant, and that the Water Authority and Ministry of Health are conducting regular tests to ensure water quality and safety.
Mayor of Tiberias and head of the Union, Yossi Naffa, stated that beaches, hotels, resorts, camping sites, and recreational villages are prepared to welcome thousands of visitors during the upcoming holidays. He encouraged the public to enjoy swimming but urged them to adhere to Ministry of Health guidelines and follow official updates on water quality and beach safety.
Naffa's statement comes amid a separate report about the demolition of three homes in Beit Hanina and the displacement of 21 Jerusalem residents, linked to escalating Israeli actions.
