In the ultra-Orthodox sector, there is heavy anger today (Thursday) over the conduct of law enforcement agencies in the area, which rightly sanctified safety, but in their opinion completely neglected the existence of the celebration in Meron.
"The incident is neutered, there is hardly any music, there is no atmosphere, there is nothing, all the way down the mountain the attitude is degrading on the part of the security and the police, there are no tidy conditions for the toilets, etc.," one of those present described.
The Rashbi celebration tonight in Meron
"You told the public that when buying tickets the event was organized in an orderly manner with no traffic jams and no delays. In reality, you saved people hours in parking lots with no food and no minimum conditions of toilets.
"Failed to keep promises"
The chairman of Jewish Power, MK Itamar Ben Gvir, arrived during the night, where hundreds of people concentrated who could not attend the Rashbi celebration in Meron due to the delay of the buses in the parking lots.
MK Ben Gvir demanded the release of the people who were stuck in the parking lots without food and drink, contrary to the police's promises in a tour in which he participated with the Homeland Security Committee, which was preparing for the event. Who arrived with devotion and were delayed from entering the mountain.
Following his intervention, the police began to release the buses, and allow the worshipers to advance on their way to Meron, but after he left the place the police continued with their policy.
Chairman of Jewish Power, MK Itamar Ben Gvir, said: "It is unfortunate in my eyes that I did not keep my promises and I had to intervene so that the police expedite the buses from the parking lots. It is not clear to me how thousands of people were stuck for hours. ".
According to Ben Gvir: "The decision-makers should have allowed more people stuck in checkpoints and traffic jams without food and drink to enter, even though they purchased tickets in advance, as requested."
