The Ministry of Health has announced that the requirement to boil water has been canceled specifically for the Beit Rivka neighborhood in Kfar Chabad. However, the advisory remains in effect for the rest of the locality.

Residents in the unaffected areas of Kfar Chabad are still instructed to boil water before drinking, cooking, preparing medication, or brushing their teeth. This continued precaution is due to the receipt of unusual water sampling results.
