A bus driver in Netanya was injured after teenagers threw stones at him, shattering the glass separating his cabin from the passengers. The attack is part of a troubling pattern of violence against transit workers in recent months, with many incidents targeting Arab employees. The driver recognized the assailants from previous encounters and was struck in the head, requiring on-site medical attention. In response, the workers' organization condemned the violence and suspended service on the affected route, demanding swift action from law enforcement. The trade federation warned that continued attacks could have deadly consequences, highlighting the urgent need for increased protection for drivers.
