"Brooklyn Synagogue Ordered to Vacate Due to Secret Tunnel Safety Concerns"

TL;DR Summary
A Brooklyn synagogue complex has been forced to shut down after extremist students from an ultra-Orthodox Hasidic group dug a secret tunnel without permits or approval, leading to structural damage and safety concerns. The city issued partial vacate orders for the affected buildings and demanded emergency stabilization work. The renegade students allegedly dug the tunnel to expand the synagogue's sanctuary, leading to a riot and arrests. As a result, the leaders will no longer sponsor education visas for the foreign students, and the school will close the visas to them.
