Israel issues restraining order against striking workers of Dimona reactor
Israel has approved measures launching emergency regulations against striking employees at the Negev Nuclear facility in Dimona.
For the past few months, scientists and researchers at the facility have been on a slowdown strike over the denial of a wage increase request.
On Sunday, the Tel Aviv regime approved a request by the head of the Israeli Atomic Energy Commission, Ze'ev Snir, enabling the issuing of restraining orders against striking employees.
According to a statement released by the office of Israeli Prime Minster Netanyahu, the strike was "disrupting activities essential to Israel" and the decision to issue the orders came in the wake of "an immediate risk" to production at the facility.
While issuing his request, Snir claimed that all those striking workers were dedicated professionals whose work is critical to the Tel Aviv regime but their request for a raise was unjustified.

It is believed that the Dimona nuclear facilities are the home to Israel's nuclear weapons.
Israel has never allowed any inspection of its nuclear facilities and continues to defy international calls to join the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
