Two main Israeli ports stop work following labour strike - statements

Two main ports in Israel announced on Monday that they had stopped work in adherence to a labour strike in protest at the religious-nationalist government's judicial overhaul.

Haifa and Ashdod ports said in separate statements that work was halted after Israel's main labour union announced a general strike earlier on Monday until Prime Minister Benjamin Netanayhu stopped judicial legislation.
