Nationwide Strikes Paralyse Israel: Kalam Digest 4

On today's weekly news summary, Edgar and Sam discuss Israel's incursion into the West Bank, as well as the latest on the distribution of the Polio vaccine in Gaza, the Houthi's latest operations and the UK cutting 10% of its arms sales to Israel.

Our main story concerns the general strike that began today in Israel - paralysing large parts of the country including the airports. The Israeli Labour Court ordered for the strike to end even before it began, signalling the gravity of the situation.
