It was a miracle that nobody was hurt when a large sinkhole suddenly opened on the busy Ayalon highway in Tel Aviv. Nor was anyone hurt when three cars fell into a cavernous sinkhole that suddenly appeared in a parking lot at Jerusalem’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center last year.
But just two months ago, a 32-year-old man was killed when a sinkhole swallowed the illegally built private pool in which he was swimming in Karmei Yosef.
