FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Aljazeera – Transport and hospitals hit as workers stage 24-hour strike over plans to fire thousands of public sector employes. Workers in Greece are staging a 24-hour nationwide strike as unions called for protests against the latest round of austerity measures. Trains ground to a halt and hospitals worked with emergency staff as strikers took action against plans to fire thousands of public sector employees. Representing about 2.5 million workers, private sector union GSEE and public sector union ADEDY have brought workers to the streets repeatedly since Greece slid into a debt crisis in late 2009. The latest strike comes a day before a parliamentary vote on Wednesday on reforms Athens agreed with its European Union and International Monetary Fund lenders as a condition for $8.9bn in aid. Among the measures included in the bill are job cuts for teachers, municipal police and local government posts.

City transport was also affected, with bus and trolley bus drivers holding work stoppages in the morning and in the evening. Trains stopped running and tax offices and municipal services remain shut.
