Report of the State Commission of Inquiry into the Disaster at Mount Meron, the State of Israel's own 2024 commission report chaired by retired judge Miriam Naor, sets out the commission's findings on the causes of the 2021 crowd crush at the Lag BaOmer gathering. Its strength is that it is the government's own official inquiry, drawing on hearings and evidence gathered under a formal mandate. Its limit is that it is the commission's own findings and framing rather than an independent scholarly account of the tradition or the disaster.
