Too Little, Too Late: Israel Loosens Rules, Expedites Gun Licenses

As The Truth About Guns reports, Israel's Minister for National Security, Itamar Ben-Gvir, has announced that the Israeli government will be relaxing some rules for obtaining a firearm license. The process for obtaining license will be expedited so that if you have already satisfied all the other requirements for a license, the final interview can be conducted over the telephone and the time to thereafter issue a license will be cut to only one week. In addition, certain technical violations of the rules to renew a license or purchase a firearm will be waived. Finally, licensed civilians will be allowed to purchase 100 rounds of ammunition rather than 50.
