Mass resignation rattles Zionist health system as Labor Court rules move 'illegal collective measure,' mulls injunction

The resignation letters submitted by 700 medical residents in July have taken effect on Sunday morning, sending the public health system in the occupied territories into a tailspin.
 
The court's ruling, which states that the mass resignation is an "illegal collective measure," has effectively rendered the residents' letters of resignation null and void. The ruling also compels the residents to return to their posts, or risk breaking the law.
 
The letters, drafted as part of the doctors' wage protest, were originally entrusted with a third party. They were submitted to the various hospitals last week, after the residents said that the wage agreement signed between the Treasury and Israeli Medical Association (IMA) failed to meet their demands.

Following the court's ruling and until the matter is resolved, the residents' duties in hospitals would have to be carried out by attending doctors and specialist.

The move has already been declared "catastrophic" by health system officials. The Health Ministry has instructed hospitals nationwide to cancel all planned vacations, as well as to try and defer any IOF reserve duty scheduled for doctors in the coming weeks.

Moreover, some 300 Israelis, Americans living in Big Apple rally Saturday in support of fellow protesters in the occupied territories, chanting 'New York, Tel Aviv – the same revolution'

Zionist social protest has manifested into transatlantic upheaval, as some 300 Israelis living in New York rallied Saturday from across the sea in support of their fellow protesters in Zionist entity.
