Jerusalem schools to strike tomorrow amid worsening security situation

Amid the worsening security situation, the Jerusalem municipality and a parents' association in the city have announced that high schools throughout the city will strike tomorrow and demand that the government finance security for schools until the end of the school day. Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat said: "As long as the government is shirking its responsibility for school security, we will not abandon our children."

 

Barkat had already threatened the strike yesterday, in protest at the fact that security for schools is only funded until 1.30pm and not until the end of the day.
