Arab sector to go on one-day strike next week

The High Follow-Up Committee for Arab Citizens of Israel announces a general strike in the Arab sector next Tuesday. Schools, businesses and stores will not operate throughout Arab communities in protest of what the committee calls “the government’s policy of house demolitions,” according to Israel Radio.

The decision comes after the bulldozers demolished three illegally built homes near Lod. Earlier this week an illegally built home was demolished in Kafr Kana in the Galilee.
