The summer beach season opened in Israel officially on Monday, 1 Iyar. The day is accompanied by the season�s first lifeguard job action as they explain there are unresolved issues pertaining to their work conditions. The lifeguard�s union explains the negotiations have been taking place for two years, to no avail.
As a result of the job action, the lifeguards only manned the nation�s 143 regulated beaches until 14:00.
