Official summary of the law (Knesset)

The Penal Law (Amendment No. 134), 2018 expands the prohibition on unlawful firing of a firearm so that it applies everywhere, and not only in a residential area, as is currently the case. In these cases, a penalty of up to two years imprisonment is established. The prohibition on firing under endangering circumstances is also expanded to include firing in a residential area, in another area where it may endanger human life, or in a manner that may endanger human life – with a penalty of up to five years imprisonment. In light of this expansion, Section 338(b), which concerns firing at a wedding or ceremony, becomes redundant and is therefore repealed.
