They respect it I don't know about other unions
Israeli labor union says it will "respect" court order to end strike From Tamar Michaelis and Jo Shelley The Israeli labor union Histadrut has said it will respect an order from the Tel Aviv Labor Court to end its general strike this afternoon.
“We live in a state of law and respect the court’s decision, therefore I instruct everyone to return to work at 2:30 p.m. (7:30 a.m. ET),” Histadrut chairman Arnon Bar-David said in a statement. “It is important to emphasize that the solidarity strike was an important move and I stand behind it.

He try appease Far left in CA donors RIGHT I know for a fact he is Biden: Netanyahu not doing enough for hostage deal Late Monday, US President Joe Biden met with American negotiators who are working alongside Qatar and Egypt to try and secure a truce between Israel and Hamas that would see the release of the remaining Israeli hostages in Gaza. Asked by reporters if he thought Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was doing enough to secure a deal for the release of hostages, Biden replied: "No." His statement came two days after Israel saw massive protests demanding that Netanyahu do more to free the 101 remaining hostages. On Monday, many sectors of the Israeli economy were brought to a standstill by a general strike called in opposition to Netanyahu's policies regarding the hostages held by Hamas.
