Large-Scale Boil Water Advisory!

Thursday Update: the Boil Water Advisory has ended.

The Ministry of Health issued a Boil Water Advisory for the following towns today, due to irregularities found in water samples:

Dvoriyah
Shivli
Um-al-Na'am
Kfar Tavor
Kfar Kama
Moshav Sarona (Eizor Taasiyah) (this notation was unclear and is my best guess as to what was meant)
Beit Sefer Kaduri
Moetza Eizorit Lower Galilee Building
Moshav Shadmot Devorah
Terra Santa Monastery
Kibbutz Beit Keshet
Moshav Kfar Kish
Kibbutz Gazit
Yavniel - Western neighborhood

Water must be boiled before use for any food preparation, drinking, dishwashing, toothbrushing, medication preparation and similar. Boil your water for at least 5 minutes and allow it to cool. Home water purifiers will not remove the problem.

This Boil Water Advisory is in effect until the Ministry of Health notifies otherwise.

Please share with your friends and family who may be affected and may not have heard!

Boil Water Advisory for Nahariya

The Ministry of Health has announced that the municipal water supply in Nahariya is unsafe to drink right now.

Until further notice, all those in Nahariya should boil water before using it for drinking, cooking, food preparation, preparation of medication, and tooth brushing. This advisory includes water from a home filtration system. In other words, all water that originated at the municipal water supply is unsafe at the moment.

Stay healthy!

UPDATE: On Nov. 19th, the Ministry of Health announced that the following neighborhoods can use tap water again:

Kibbutz Galuyot
Nachalat Asher
Kiryat Asor
Yoseftal

There has been no word on the rest of the town as of Nov. 22, 2015. Please check with the Ministry of Health at *5400 for clarification.
