Baku – APA-Economics. Ground staff began an indefinite strike at Tel Aviv’s Ben-Gurion airport on Monday, initially halting all outgoing flights, an airport spokeswoman said, Reuters reported.

The stoppage by Israel Airports Authority workers in support of pension demands occurred during one of the busiest holiday periods of the year in Israel, she said.

Flights already en route to Ben-Gurion, Israel’s main international airport, were being allowed to land but all ground services such as offloading of baggage were suspended.

"The airport is currently closed to all outgoing flights and the strike is currently open-ended," the spokeswoman said.

"Transport Ministry, Finance Ministry, airport officials and the union will work to try to find a solution to the workers’ pension demands.”
