Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday announced plans for a strict, two-week nationwide lockdown in a bid to slow a raging coronavirus outbreak.
In a video statement, Netanyahu said there would be a "full lockdown" beginning Friday that would run through Oct. 10. He said the lockdown would continue for at least another two weeks, albeit "hopefully" with some restrictions eased.
