But Education Minister Naftali Bennett says his ministry will extend and expand the summer camps and other activities for children in the Gaza Belt area this year.
Children in Sderot, a city located barely a mile from the Gaza border, will also be included in the program, called the “summer vacation school.”
In addition to the program – for first and second graders – summer camps and enrichment activities will also be held for preschool and other elementary school children as well, Bennett said.
The minister made the announcement to the heads of local authorities and communities in the Gaza Belt region this week.
