Argentina's largest trade unions staged a 24-hour strike against President Javier Milei's austerity measures and contentious deregulation push, causing hundreds of flight cancellations and halting key bus, rail, and subway services. The strike threatens to bring the nation of 46 million to a standstill as banks, businesses, and state agencies also closed in protest. This marks the second nationwide union strike since Milei came to power last December, as he attempts to rescue Argentina from its worst financial crisis in two decades.
