The Labour Court has ruled against the Histadrut's decision to hold a solidarity strike in favor of a hostage deal today (Monday), calling the strike "political" and unrelated to labor conflicts or grievances. It has thus ordered that the strike cease at 14:30 time.
The strike, which only some unions and government offices adhered to, was declared yesterday with the aim of pressuring the government of Israel to agree to a deal to release the hostages.
