Israel. Israeli inquiry into deadly Mount Meron stampede begins hearings (Al Jazeera)

An Israeli government commission investigating a deadly accident at a Jewish pilgrimage site in April held its first hearing, almost four months after the stampede at Mount Meron killed 45 people.

The April 29 incident at the Jewish festival in northern Israel was the deadliest civilian disaster in the country’s history. About 100,000 worshippers, mostly ultra-Orthodox Jews, attended festivities despite coronavirus regulations limiting outdoor assemblies to 500 people, and in spite of longstanding warnings about the safety of the site.
