Third general strike against Milei: "We can't go on like this any longer."

Thousands of workers in Argentina have joined the 24-hour general strike called by the unions that make up the General Confederation of Labor (CGT) this Thursday. Transportation has been the hardest hit sector, with a complete shutdown of trains, subways, taxis, and airplanes, while buses, key to the capital's mobility, have operated in the city of Buenos Aires. Public schools have opened normally, and some faculties at the University of Buenos Aires (UBA) have held classes—online due to the transportation strike—such as the Law School. The Philosophy and Literature School—historically more militant—has suspended classes and closed its doors throughout Thursday. Small businesses and the private sector have generally not joined the strike.
