The bus drivers' organization and the Histadrut said in response that the Minister of Transport is harming the soldiers and their right to return to the base - as well as the bus drivers.

"It is time for the Minister of Transport to deal with affected populations such as drivers who drive more than 14 hours a day," they said.

"On Sunday, the State of Israel will burn in the largest drivers' strike the state has ever known."



The strike will begin at 06:00 in the morning and end at 09:00 - a peak time for road congestion.

The strike is being led by drivers unionized in the Histadrut, after they said Transport Minister Meirav Michaeli had not agreed to hold a meeting with them regarding their demands.

This strike comes after the National Labor Court lifted the restraining orders issued which would allow drivers to take action.

On Friday, the drivers went on strike, following a series of previous Saturdays as part of their protest over the reform promoted by Michaeli and the Ministry of Transportation on buses.
