strike as

Most of the headquarters of the Lebanese branch of the Syrian Baath party was destroyed in the strike, as rescue and civil defence teams rushed to aid a number of people trapped under the rubble, the National News Agency reported.

The family’s campaign has been supported by Richard Ratcliffe, who knows only too well what drives someone to go on hunger strike - as he himself did for his wife, Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe.

Washington presented the Iranian strike as "defeated and ineffective".

And, overall, the tone is much more contentious than during the West Coast negotiations, where there was relatively little saber-rattling and few people on either side viewed a strike as a serious threat.

New chief executive Kelly Ortberg, who was appointed to turn the business around, had urged workers not to strike as it would put the company's "recovery in jeopardy".
