ItalyAn national train strike has been announced for September 7 and 8, affecting services across Italy. The strike, organized by autonomous trade unions Cat, Sgb, and Cub, involves staff from the FS Group, including Trenitalia, Tper, and Trenord, except for certain regional personnel. It aims to address concerns over workplace safety, protection of public service, and job security. The strike could disrupt regional, intercity, and high-speed train services.

The strike follows disputes over the management of InterCity services and recent legislative decisions impacting workers' rights.
