News Brief Handicap organizations renew protests across the country, block major highways, 'There will be no more compromises'

Handicap organizations resumed their nationwide protests this morning.

They began blocking a series of key intersections and highways in protest of the deadlocked negotiations with the Finance Ministry's Budget Department. They are demanding full implementation of the Handicap Law which was passed in February 2018. Israel has been without a state budget for almost two full years.

One of the protestors said, "There will be no more compromises. We have started this 'war of subsistence' for all handicapped in the country."
