Despite opposition in the coalition: The Smoking Law will be up for a second and third reading in the current Knesset. This was decided today (Sunday) in the Consensus Committee between coalition and opposition members. The law imposes restrictions on the advertising and marketing of cigarettes, and also imposes restrictions on the sale of cigarettes to minors. On behalf of MKs Eitan Cabel of the Zionist Camp and Yehuda Glick of the Likud, who initiated the law, it was stated: "Against all odds and the powerful forces that worked against us, we managed to pass our law to ban the advertising of smoking and tobacco products. "8,000 people die a year as a result of the harms of smoking and this law is the greatest news for public health. This is a historic law that is destined to change the face of reality in Israel in all that concerns the war on smoking." MK Yehuda Glick, who last week, when the Knesset Dissolution Law was approved in the Knesset Committee,
He cried because the law was torpedoed for him, IDF on his Twitter account: "This is the day that God has made a revelation and we will rejoice in it! A psalm of thanks: Thank you to my friends Mori and Rabbi Eitan Cabel, thank you to the members of the Consent Committee, Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein, Coalition Chairman Dudi Amsalem and Opposition Chairman Yoel Hasson. Above all, thank you, Lord of the World, that I was privileged to fulfill a mission of saving lives."
