Train traffic will be reduced, starting at 12:00, and will stop completely at 14:00. The train service will only resume at midnight between Monday and Tuesday.
At Ben Gurion Airport, takeoffs and landings will end around 14:00 and will return to full activity on the eve of the holiday, with the first landing at 22:35 and the first takeoff at 23:30.
