Bnei Brak Municipality allegedly blocked road with dumpsters before Shabbat in protest - report

Tensions rise between secular and haredi residents in Bnei Brak as police say, "Secular people also intentionally provoke haredim, drive recklessly, and do burnouts."

The Bnei Brak Municipality allegedly instructed a driver to place large dumpsters on the access road before Shabbat, blocking access to a predominantly secular neighborhood. The municipality denies giving orders to place the dumpsters. Police were called by concerned residents and removed the containers, restoring access to the road.
