"A 24-hour general strike in Rome, Italy, beginning December 13th at 8:30 AM, severely disrupted public transportation, causing widespread traffic congestion and school closures.

Despite attempts by Minister Matteo Salvini to shorten the strike, the Administrative Court ruled in favor of the workers.", "The strike's impact extended beyond transportation, affecting public services, including the opening hours and services at several offices. The USB union also reported taxi drivers joining the action, indicating widespread worker discontent. Planned demonstrations further exacerbated traffic and transport issues.", "The strike highlights deep-seated labor unrest in Rome, potentially signaling broader social and economic dissatisfaction.
