Commuters head home early, take trains to avoid blocked roads

Major city centers are already experiencing unusual traffic jams due to the Ethiopian-Israeli protests, which are only starting up at several points around the country.

In Tel Aviv, tech companies urge workers to go home early so they don’t get stuck in hours-long jams experienced over the past two days.

In Jerusalem, the Yitzhak Navon central train station is limiting entry to the station due to overcrowding as commuters turn to the rail network to escape clogged highways.
