Jerusalem hospital chief says sinkhole apparently caused by digging of highway tunnel
Dr. Ofer Marin, the director of Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem, says a large sinkhole that swallowed up several cars in the hospital’s parking lot appears to have been caused by the nearby digging of a highway tunnel.
He also says the hospital itself is safe and that it is operating as usual.
