Israel Nature and Parks Authority calls off planned Passover strike

National park and nature reserve workers call off a planned strike they had threatened to hold for two or more days during the upcoming Passover holidays, when hundreds of thousands of vacationing Israelis like to head out to see nature in full bloom.

Management at the Israel Nature and Parks Authority had asked the Jerusalem Regional Labor Court to prevent the strike. During court deliberations the workers agreed not to carry out the strike that would have shuttered 200 nature reserves and 70 national parks.

The strike was called after what the workers say is the suspension of negotiations over salaries and conditions.
