Palestinian doctors to strike today

According to this report on the Ma’an website, West Bank doctors are going on strike today.

They are angry at the Palestinian Authority for not living up to its side of an agreement with their union.

The report continues: “Only doctors on duty in wards will work while all others, including specialists, will stay home, the doctors union said in a statement.  The union called on all members of its general assembly to join a sit-in protest at the Palestinian Legislative Council in Ramallah on Wednesday.”
