Hili Keren: Crowds at Tel Aviv train station after service cancellations

Reporter Hili Keren reports heavy crowds at the Tel Aviv train station following earlier cancellations, according to N12. The disruptions are linked to ongoing Haredi protests blocking tracks.

Following Haredi protest blockades at the Tel Aviv HaHagana station and near Ben Gurion Airport, rail services on the line to Lod were suspended. Reporter Hili Keren (N12) reports that the cancellations have led to crowding at the Tel Aviv station as passengers seek alternatives. The earlier blockade was part of ongoing protests by Haredi men against conscription policies; as The Zioneer reported at 18:09, demonstrators obstructed tracks at two locations.
