Bnei Akiva cancels its Lag B’Omer bonfires in light of dry weather conditions

The national religious youth movement Bnei Akiva cancels its bonfire events planned for the evening due to dry, windy weather conditions.

Yair Shahal, the organization’s secretary-general, calls on staff throughout Israel to celebrate the Lag B’Omer holiday “with learning, joy, singing and any educational activity that does not include a bonfire.”
