01 · THE DISPATCH

The Rehovot City Workers' Union announced a general strike set to begin Tuesday at 06:00, effectively shutting down most municipal services in the central Israeli city indefinitely. The decision follows unresolved disagreements between the workers' committee and the municipality's management, which the union accuses of advancing unilateral measures and harming employees. Special-education frameworks have been exempted from the strike and will continue operating normally. The municipality has not yet issued a response. Residents have called on both sides to reach an understanding quickly to minimize disruption. The strike is purely a local labor dispute with no connection to broader security developments.
