Israel nationwide strike: Court orders industrial action must end

A court in Tel Aviv has ordered that a major nationwide strike across Israel is politically motivated and must end. Thousands of Israelis took to the streets on Monday calling for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to sign a ceasefire and captives swap deal. The action was called after the bodies of six Israeli captives were recovered from a tunnel in southern Gaza on Saturday. Al Jazeera’s Hamdah Salhut reports.

Analysis: Will the mass protests in Israel make a difference?

Phyllis Bennis, a fellow at the Institute for Policy Studies and adviser to Jewish Voice for Peace, characterised the mass protests in Israel and upcoming strike action as significant. She noted that this is the largest protest movement since the latest assaults on Gaza began on October 7, with around 500,000 participants. Bennis highlighted the planned strikes in crucial sectors like health, tech, and manufacturing, including the shutdown of the international airport. She believes these actions could significantly impact the government, though it’s uncertain if they will alter Netanyahu’s stance.
