Israel's largest union strikes against Netanyahu's plans.

Departing flights from Israel's main international airport have been grounded due to a strike called by the country's largest trade union grouping in protest against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's planned judicial overhaul. The strike could paralyze large parts of Israel's economy, which is already on shaky ground, ratcheting up the pressure on Netanyahu to suspend the overhaul. The overhaul has sparked a sustained and intensifying protest movement that has spread to nearly all sectors of society, including its military, where reservists have increasingly come out publicly to say they will not serve a country veering toward autocracy.
