Israel's Ministry of Education has decided to reroute school trips in northern border areas following the death of a student. The ministry announced on Tuesday that it is mourning the loss of a student from the "Ort Ma'alot" religious high school and extended condolences to the family, wishing a speedy recovery to those injured.
In response to the incident, emergency procedures were activated, and an operations room was convened under the supervision of the Minister of Education and the Director-General of the Ministry. It was decided to divert school trips scheduled for October 13 and 14 in the front-line areas and the northern Golan Heights to alternative routes, based on a map of defensive zones issued by the Home Front Command.
Groups currently on trips in these regions have been instructed to leave their planned routes and move to alternative ones, in coordination with the Ministry's trip center. School trips in the rest of the country will proceed as usual.
Additionally, safety instructions have been reinforced nationwide, emphasizing caution regarding unexploded ordnance. The ministry will continue to study the process for approving activities in the coming days, in cooperation with relevant authorities. All requests for route changes or exceptions will be reviewed in coordination with the trip center.
