Attorney-General Avichai Mandelblit
Israel Police have begun to collect testimonies from the survivors of the disaster that took place Thursday night on Lag B’Omer at the Tomb of Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai in Meron.
However, police officers will not be interviewing other police officers; Israel Police requested that an outside agency investigate the issue of whether police had any responsibility for the tragedy.

At least 45 people were killed and 150 more injured in what appears to have been a stampede as participants were leaving a bonfire at the site of the Toldos Aharon Hassidic group.
