Ongoing Updates – Operation Rising Lion

Campus Announcement Saturday night, 14.06.25, 22:15

Good evening,
The last 24 hours have been complex and challenging for all of us. In accordance with the Home Front Command’s instructions prohibiting gatherings and following the announcement made yesterday, activities at the Technion tomorrow (Sunday, June 15) and the day after (Monday, June 16) will take place remotely only and in an online format. The work format for the rest of the week will be distributed tomorrow.

Activities at the Technion campuses in Haifa and Tel Aviv will be limited strictly to emergency teams and reduced to the bare essentials. Access to the campus will only be permitted in special cases with the approval of the head of the academic or administrative unit.
Accordingly, there will be no employee shuttles.

Lectures and studies will be held online via Zoom. Laboratories and sports classes will not take place and will be rescheduled according to the instructions of the course teams. All campus learning spaces will be closed.

•  Work by external contractors on campus will not take place during these days.
• The sports center and pool will remain closed until further notice.
• All shelters and protected spaces on campus are open. The campus gates (Neve Sha’anan and Nesher) are open as usual.
• The campus supermarkets will be open tomorrow for supplies between 07:30-15:00.

The Security Unit’s hotline is available 24/7 at 04-8292222 and on the website https://bitahon.technion.ac.il.

Take care of yourselves. Entering a protected space during an alarm saves lives.
Wishing for a quiet week,
Technion Management
