Thousands flock to holy site year after disaster
Thousands of worshippers flocked to a Jewish holy site in northern Israel to pray and light memorial candles Wednesday under heavy police presence, a year after a chaotic stampede left 45 people dead there. This year’s Lag BaOmer is limited to 16,000 people who had to secure tickets in advance.
