Israeli officials have said they will hold the competition in the southern city of Elliot in December, despite the rapidly expanding redesign.
The ‘Miss Universe Organization’, which is organizing the competition, did not specify the contestant or her nationality who has been found to be infected with Kovid-19.

Organizers said most of the 80 contestants had arrived in Israel.
