Nationwide Public Transport Strike Paralyzes the Netherlands
Public transportation workers organized by the FNV trade union held a nationwide strike, shutting down trains, buses, trams, and subways across the Netherlands during the early morning and rush hour commutes. The major industrial action was called to protest the government's planned cuts to social security, reductions in disability benefits, and proposed increases to the retirement age.
