Thousands Gather at Ashdod's Separate Beach During Bein Hazmanim Holiday
During the Bein Hazmanim period, visiting the beach is a popular leisure activity in Israel. However, the number of separate beaches designated for the Haredi community has decreased, leading to thousands crowding into the few remaining locations. Photographer Haim Goldberg visited the separate beach in Ashdod on Monday and documented the large gatherings there. His photos capture the dense crowds of Haredi men and families enjoying the beach despite limited space. This highlights the ongoing demand for separate recreational spaces within Israel's Haredi population during holiday breaks.
