Dear Mr President,
I was deeply moved by the news of the tragic incident on Mount Meron in Galilee where during the celebrations of Lag ba-Omer and death anniversary of the great mystic Shimon bar Yohai dozens of people were trampled to death and over one hundred suffered injuries.

In these painful moments, my compatriots and I join in sorrow and prayer the families and closed ones of the victims, wishing quick and full recovery to all the wounded.
