The Storm of Sabbath Desecrations in the City of Rehovot and Why Is a Strike Expected Tomorrow During Minister Katz's Visit?

Summary
Vigilance in the streets ahead of tomorrow (Tuesday): While Defense Minister Yisrael Katz is expected to make an official visit to the city, the municipal workers' committee has declared a general strike, claiming violations of workers' rights, failure to transfer the workers' committee budget, and promotion of unilateral moves by the municipal administration. Currently, the Labor Court is hearing the municipality's request to issue a strike injunction, with a decision expected soon and determining whether the municipality will operate as usual or will be suspended. The timing is particularly sensitive, as the Defense Minister's planned visit is expected to include a tour of the city and a professional meeting at the municipality. Shabbat turmoil in the background The Shabbat turmoil in the streets of Rehovot also continues in the background, following Mayor Matan Deal's decision to allow businesses on Herzl Street to continue to open on Shabbat.
