Zimbabwe sacks 435 doctors over illegal strike

    The Zimbabwean government on Friday said it has so far fired 435 junior doctors at public hospitals for engaging in an illegal strike.

    According to Xinhua news, the doctors had been on strike since early September to demand better pay and improved working conditions.

    The Labor Court in October declared the strike illegal, but the doctors have been defiant and continued with the strike, paralysing operations at major public health institutions in the country.

    The Health Service Board has 45 more disciplinary cases to handle for the doctors.
