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.
Harkov 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.
