Destrucción masiva y pérdidas de cientos de millones: el costo de la lucha contra el tren ligero en Jerusalén
Una suma inimaginable de 400 millones de shéquels: esta es la pérdida estimada que sufrió la Línea Verde del tren ligero. La razón: vandalismo continuo durante las protestas de los haredíes extremistas en la calle…
Valoración
The green line of Jerusalem's light rail faces an estimated 400 million shekel loss due to relentless vandalism by extremist Haredi protesters on Bar-Ilan Street. The project has been split into two segments: lines in neighborhoods without protests may still open this year, while the Bar-Ilan section is delayed until at least late 2027. This highlights how localized ideological resistance can reshape major urban infrastructure timelines and budgets. The key question is whether authorities have a strategy to prevent further vandalism and salvage the broader project's viability.
