The ministerial team charged with handling the government investigation of the Meron disaster on Sunday approved the appointment of Jerusalem Affairs Minister Meir Porush to lead the preparations for the Lag Ba'omer celebrations in Meron. The decision closely follows the signing of a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Lebanon. It is hoped that the celebrations will be held in a fashion similar to how they were held last year.
