Power Failure Disrupts Train Service Between Tel Aviv and Lod During Morning Rush
On the morning of July 26, 2026, Israel Railways announced a suspension of train service on the line between Tel Aviv and Lod due to an electrical network failure. The disruption occurred during peak commuting hours when many passengers were traveling to work and military bases. After more than two hours, train operations resumed to normal. This incident follows a similar disruption the previous Sunday caused by a fire near the tracks in Be'er Ya'akov, which affected multiple stations including Ashkelon, Rehovot, Be'er Ya'akov, Yavne East, Lod, Rishon LeZion, and Ashdod.
