Chaos as trains between TA, Haifa disrupted
Train service between Tel Aviv and Haifa is experiencing widespread disruptions after a man was killed on the tracks near Netanya.
The disruptions have caused thousands of people to be stranded during their evening commutes. While service has since been partially returned, express trains are being forced to stop at every station, slowing them.
According to Israel Railways, a man in his 70s entered the tracks and was apparently killed by a passing train south of Beit Yehoshua.
According to the Ynet news site, travelers were promised buses, but they never showed up.
