The Azrieli Mall in Haifa was unusually closed on Sunday and will remain shut until at least Monday morning due to a power outage. The outage affected cash registers in the mall's stores. A technical malfunction in the mall's main electrical cabinet caused the disruption, according to a statement from the mall. "We decided on a temporary closure of the mall to visitors," the statement read, adding that the Rami Levy supermarket branch within the mall remains operational as its power supply is unaffected. Professional teams are working with the Electric Company to repair the fault and restore the mall's systems as quickly as possible. Current estimates suggest repairs will be completed by Monday morning, after which the mall will reopen following system checks. The mall experienced a similar evacuation about a year ago due to a fire in a warehouse that spread smoke into the shopping areas.
