Israel prepares for Yom Kippur

Today, on the eve of Yom Kippur (which coincides this year with Shabbat), public sector institutions and public transport operate on a special schedule.

Working on Fridays (as well as on the eve of festive and memorable dates), branches of the state, as well as post offices and banks cease to function no later than 12:00.

The intensity of public transport traffic will begin to decrease immediately after noon and will completely end at 15:00.

The intensity of public transport will decrease in stages. First of all, it will affect the intercity bus traffic (starting from 13:00).

The work of urban public transport will be reduced from 14:00.
Railway transport will operate, in general, until 15:00.

Details concerning specific railway routes can be found on the website "Rakevet-Israel", including in Russian.

Recall that Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) is a unique day of the Jewish calendar, on this day many Israelis, far from religion, come to synagogues and public centers "for beginners to observe."

The editorial office of Cursor stops its work on the eve of Yom Kippur and resumes publication of the news on September 30 at 19:00.

The editorial staff wants an easy post ("tsom kal") to all readers who follow the national and religious traditions of the Jewish people.
