Initially, Minister Ben Gvir and the Commissioner expressed reservations about holding the celebration under the new outline and presented a long list of concerns for human life. During a work meeting last night in Meron, the Minister said: "The blood of my Haredi, traditional religious and secular brothers who come to Meron is not in vain.".

After these things - in the nightly conversation, the Major General promised to implement the police's comments and recommendations regarding the numbers of people entering and maintaining public order - and the Major General updated that he takes responsibility and confirms the event.

According to the summary, there will be continuous status assessments by the Home Front Command - which will ensure the full implementation of the outline.

According to the outline that has been formulated, it will be possible to hold gatherings of up to 1,500 people in each complex in Meron - in accordance with significant distances between them, and gathering spaces for the participating audience.

The four main complexes will include the Rashbi Zion, the Bnei Akiva complex, Moshav Meron, and the expanded Hilula complex.

It will be possible to participate in the celebration in rounds of up to two hours each.

Under the guidance of safety officials, the number of participants in the celebration will weigh the security spaces required to ensure the success of the plan throughout the day of the celebration.

In the various complexes, there will be prayer centers, dancing, lighting candles, and welcoming guests - with the aim of evenly distributing the audience and reducing the danger.

The updated celebration outline:

• Various gathering areas throughout Meron
• Up to two-hour hikes to Meron
• Limited ticket sales on a first-come, first-served basis from eleven points across the country
• Lighting and gatherings are restricted around the clock
• The Rashbi tradition will be preserved in the best and safest way possible.
