Summary
Israel's Education Ministry has instructed schools not to dock grades for students who miss online Zoom lessons, a measure effective until the Passover holiday break. The directive comes as children across the country face sleepless nights due to missile alerts, making it difficult to attend morning classes. The head of the National Student Council welcomed the move, saying Israeli children "can breathe easy" knowing their grades won't suffer because of a night full of sirens.
