I still don’t have details, but according to a labor source hundreds of leaflets were distributed on Monday in Ghazl el-Mahalla, threatening a new strike on 21 July (one week after the start of the new financial year?).

The United Bank continues its crackdown on the Mansoura-España Garments Company workers.
The management sacked today trade unionist Mohsen el-Shae’r, and five women workers: Soua’d Mamdouh, Soua’d Salama, Sabreen Sabri, Hoda Said, and Nermin Abbas, accusing them of agitating for a strike.
The workers’ names were reported to the Talkha Police Station, together with 15 other names of workers the company is accusing of instigating the current industrial action.
