"German Court Allows Train Drivers' Strike Amid Rail Disruption"
The State Labor Court of Hesse rejected a temporary injunction by Deutsche Bahn, allowing train drivers to proceed with a nationwide strike from Wednesday to Friday. The strike, called by the train drivers' union GDL, will disrupt travel for millions of passengers, with a heavily reduced emergency timetable in place. The union is seeking better wages and a reduction in work hours, while Deutsche Bahn opposes the latter, citing existing staffing challenges.
