Public workers begin general strike

Today, internal Lebanese stations are launching a general strike in protest against the retroactive installment of wage and salary increases. The Public Sector Employees' Union considers this approach to contradict the opinion of the State Council and demands that dues be paid in full, in a single payment. The strike is expected to include a gradual escalation of protests and sit-ins until the decree is withdrawn and legal violations are corrected. This comes amid parliamentary discussions on important laws, most notably the general amnesty law, which is witnessing developments following efforts to craft a more acceptable version, and the media law, which faces broad opposition from the media sector due to concerns over provisions that could allow the jailing of journalists and restrictions on licensing new unions. Additionally, parliamentary agenda challenges include discussions on abolishing the death penalty and regulating the banking sector.
