Mount Meron: The Writing Was on the Wall

The JPost Podcast - A podcast by Jerusalem Post Podcasts - Fridays

Was the Mount Meron tragedy caused by politics? In this episode, Diplomatic Correspondent Lahav Harkov and Editor-in-Chief Yaakov Katz discuss the systemic problem that led to the Meron stampede, that led to increased death during COVID-19 and more. Lahav focuses on the distrust between the ultra-Orthodox and the government and the conspiracy theories that are being shared on social media since 45 people died last week.
