Work on Shabbat Sparks Outrage at Ein Joneh Spring
Work to demolish ceilings was carried out at the Ein Joneh spring on the most recent Shabbat, according to reports. The demolition work was reportedly conducted in violation of a court ruling concerning the spring.
A police officer present at the scene was recorded stating that permission had been granted to work on Shabbat, the Jewish day of rest. The report raises questions about who was aware of the work and who was surprised by the alleged desecration of Shabbat.
The specific details of the court ruling and the source of the alleged permission for work on Shabbat remain unclear.
