According to the reports, airport employees went on strike in protest over working conditions and staffing shortages.<\/p>\n
In response, Israel’s transport minister has asked airport officials to bring the workers’ committee before a court, so that what he described as an “illegal” strike can be brought to an end.<\/p>\n
At the same time, Israel’s finance minister has also sharply criticized the workers who went on strike.<\/p>\n
Ben Gurion Airport is one of Israel’s most important airfields, and disruption to its operations could affect air travel in the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
