Norwegian Train Drivers Strike for Gaza
On Thursday 8 January all trains in the whole of Norway, and all
trams and subways in Oslo, stood still for two minutes in protest against the
Israeli invasion. The union issued the following information for passengers:
“Because of the situation in the Gaza Strip, the Locomotive Drivers
Union in Norway has decided to demonstrate our solidarity with the Palestinian
people. This will be organized by adding two more minutes of stoppage at the
station. The same action applies to all passenger trains in Norway simultaneously.
We demand the immediate withdrawal of all Israeli troops from the Palestinian
territory. Thank you for your understanding.”
