On March 6, 2024, the State Commission of Inquiry into the Mount Meron Disaster published its findings and recommendations. The publication of the committee’s conclusions marked the final chord of an intensive process that lasted over two and a half years, including material gathering, testimonies, sending warning letters, and publishing two interim reports on the matter. The horrific disaster that claimed the lives of 45 men, boys, and children is considered the most severe civil disaster in the history of the State of Israel. The committee determined that the disaster could have been prevented. “The writing was on the wall long before the disaster occurred, it was written in large, bold letters, sharp and clear, but remained there unanswered.”
