Tlais Says Transport Sector to Stage Strike, Protests throughout Thursday

The head of the Unions and Syndicates of the Land Transport Sector, Bassam Tlais, on Wednesday announced the program of the strike and protests that the sector will stage Thursday across Lebanon.

“The previous suspension of the strike was based on promises from the prime minister and ministers to support the land transport sector,” Tlais said.

“The suffering has increased, there is no alternative to the strike and tomorrow’s step is only the beginning,” Tlais added.

He also revealed that the strike and protests will be held throughout the day, as of 6:00 am, and that protesters will head at 9:00 pm from several points in Beirut to the Grand Serail.
