Israel’s Education Ministry announced Tuesday that junior high school classes throughout the country would resume Thursday morning unless there was a worsening of the security situation.
The order does not apply to the Greater Tel Aviv and Greater Haifa areas, where most Iraqi Scud missiles have hit.
Elementary school classes throughout the country will remain suspended until the security situation stabilizes, the ministry said.
