Israel's largest labor organization Histadrut started Monday a general worker strike to press the government to halt its contentious judicial overhaul plan.

以色列最大的劳工组织——以色列总工会，星期一开始举行大罢工，针对有争议的司法改革计划向政府施压。

Histadrut's chairman Arnon Bar-David issued a statement saying "workers and employers will together halt the judicial overhaul," Israeli media reported.

据以色列媒体报道，劳工总会主席阿农·巴尔·大卫发表声明说，“工人和雇主将共同阻止司法改革的进行。”

Following his call, departing flights from Ben Gurion International Airport have been grounded. Factories, banks, shopping malls, and local authorities participating in the strike also shut down services.

在他的呼吁下，从本古里安国际机场出发的航班已经停飞。参与罢工的工厂、银行、购物中心和地方当局也停止了服务。

Fast food chain restaurant McDonald's also joined the strike and closed its restaurants throughout Israel.

快餐连锁店麦当劳也加入了罢工行列，并关闭了其在以色列各地的餐厅。

Public transportation, schools, and kindergartens were not affected.

公共交通、学校和幼儿园没有受到影响。

Meanwhile, the Israeli Medical Association announced a strike at all public hospitals and community clinics for the same reason, sparing only urgent life-saving treatments.

与此同时，以色列医学协会宣布，出于同样的理由，所有公立医院和社区诊所都将罢工，只保留紧急救生治疗服务。

All Israeli public universities also went on strike on the same grounds. Israel's Association of University Heads in a statement called on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his ruling coalition to immediately stop the legislation procedure and begin discussions to reach an agreed and broad outline.

以色列所有公立大学也以同样的理由举行了罢工。以色列大学校长协会也发表声明，呼吁以色列总理内塔尼亚胡和他的执政联盟立即停止立法程序，吸取各方意见，达成一个商定的、广泛的纲要。

The current Israeli government has put forward changes to the Israeli judicial system aimed at curbing the "overly activist" Supreme Court since the beginning of this year, sparking continued massive protests nationwide.

自今年年初以来，以色列现政府对司法系统提出的遏制“过于激进”的最高法院的改革，引发全国范围内持续的大规模抗议活动。
