Israel starts mass Covid-19 vaccination program

Israel has become one of the first countries to start a mass coronavirus vaccination program, as the number of new cases surges.

The country will vaccinate health workers and everyone over the age of 60 initially, followed by people with underlying conditions then the rest of the adult population.

But Palestinians are not in line for the vaccine, even though the outbreak is worse in some parts of the West Bank and Gaza.
