Israel Radio goes on strike following IBA workers’ protest demonstration

Strike called in the aftermath of protests in retaliation to government decision to dismantle the IBA.
 
At the directive of the Engineers Union at the Israel Broadcasting Authority, all radio stations that are part of the Israel Radio network went on strike Monday indefinitely.
 
The strike was called in the aftermath of a protest demonstration, where hundreds of IBA employees blocked access to the Knesset and the Finance Ministry in retaliation to a decision taken by the government and the Knesset to dismantle the IBA, fire close to 2,000 employees and open a pared down new public broadcasting entity in its stead.
