Vandals have targeted OMNY card readers across New York City’s subway system in what appears to be a politically motivated act of sabotage. The attacks involved deliberate damage to the electronic payment terminals, disrupting fare collection and commuter services. Authorities are investigating whether the incidents are linked to broader protests or coordinated opposition to the city’s transit payment system. The disruptions have raised concerns about public safety and the resilience of critical infrastructure amid rising tensions.
