(JNS) Work continues at the gravesite of Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai in Meron to prepare the site for Lag B’Omer after the disaster last April, when 45 people were killed in a stampede.

Structures at the site have been demolished, and the area has been cleared, reported Arutz 7.

The State Commission of Inquiry into the Mount Meron disaster delivered its interim recommendations in November regarding safety preparedness for the site.
