Third arson in two months: 'Bendita' coffee shop in Ramat Gan attacked again

A severe wave of arson in Ramat Gan: The "Bendita" coffee shop was set on fire tonight for the third time in less than two months. According to a report on News from the Field on Telegram, unidentified individuals set fire to the front of the business in the early morning hours, which led to heavy damage to the site.

Assessments on the ground suggest that the background for the repeated harassment is the owners' decision to operate the coffee shop on Saturdays. Israel News IL note that as of now, the police have not yet arrested any suspects involved in the arsons.

Despite the repeated attempts to harm the business, the owners refuse to surrender to the threats. In a statement quoted on News from the Field on Telegram, the owners clarified: "There is no chance we will give up, we will continue to open and operate the place as usual. No one will succeed in intimidating us."
