We've been reporting on the UNRWA workers' strike in the West Bank.

It isn't only schools that are affected, but also sanitation.

Garbage is piling high, making roads inaccessible,  and the kids - out of school - are playing in the trash, according to Palestine Today.

Health centers are also closed, and there is danger of disease from the lack of garbage pickup. In the early days, residents volunteered to take care of the trash themselves, but they seem to have stopped.

The strike is now 54 days old, and the mainstream media is still ignoring it - because no one can blame Israel for it.

As soon as they figure out an Israel angle, though, then we can expect lots of coverage.
