  • Health Ministry lifts water boiling mandate for most of Carmiel.
  • Boiling still required in industrial zone and parts of two neighborhoods.
  • Several public institutions still require water boiling.
  • Previous mandate issued two days ago due to abnormal test results.

The Israeli Ministry of Health announced Thursday night the lifting of the water boiling requirement for most of the city of Carmiel. This decision follows satisfactory water quality tests from the majority of sampling points within the city and corrective actions taken by the water corporation.

Despite the eased restrictions, residents in specific areas are still advised to boil water before consumption, brushing teeth, and preparing food and medication. These areas include the entire industrial zone, parts of the Founders' neighborhood (listing specific streets), and sections of the Southern neighborhood (listing specific streets).

The directive also remains in effect for several public institutions, such as the cultural hall, the Histadrut house, the community center, the stadium, the conservatory, the library, Ohel Baruch, the shooting range, and Ofira Park.

Two days prior, the Ministry of Health had issued a city-wide mandate for residents to boil tap water due to abnormal results from earlier water sampling.
