American tourists who change at least $12 daily into Israel currency during their stay in the Jewish state will be entitled to nonausterity meals in restaurants especially authorized to serve them, it was announced here today.
The new regulations will go into effect on April 1. These tourists will receive two meat meals a day despite the fact that the country now observes four meatless days a week.
