The Israeli Ministry of Health has issued a warning about an intense heatwave expected to peak from Friday, July 31, through Sunday, August 2, affecting most regions across the country. The ministry urges the public to avoid sun exposure and strenuous physical activity, stay hydrated, and remain in air-conditioned environments to mitigate health risks.
Special caution is advised for vulnerable groups including the elderly, children, pregnant women, and individuals with chronic illnesses. The ministry emphasizes the critical danger of leaving babies, children, or elderly people unattended in vehicles without air conditioning.
Heat exhaustion and heatstroke are serious concerns during this period, as the body may fail to cool itself adequately.

The Health Ministry's alert aims to prevent heat-related illnesses amid the forecasted extreme temperatures.
