Haredi rabbi says that Tel Aviv parking garage disaster is the result of breaking Shabbat

Rabbi Meir Mazuz, the leader of the Sephardic Haredi public, said that the Tel Aviv parking garage collapse occured as a result of the state violating the Sabbath.

"What happened in this week's tragedy has never happened before. There are engineers, other intelligent people, supervisors...and now dozens of people are buried beneath the ground. Everything comes as a result of desecrating Shabbat. Government heads need to understand that everything done on Shabbat is not blessed."
