No rail service to Ben Gurion airport on a Friday morning?

The Israel Railways site lists no trains from Tel Aviv to Ben Gurion Airport on Friday 15/09/2017 even though trains are running elsewhere. Normally, on a Friday, there's service until a little before sunset. What's going on? It looks like planned engineering works, but I can't find any announcement in English.

Is this really railway engineering, or should I also expect buses to be disrupted? If these are railway engineering works, are there any replacement buses? Where can I find information in English?
