Trash cans are seen piled up in Lisbon, Portugal, on December 28, 2024. Lisbon faces a challenging Christmas as rubbish collectors strike from Christmas Day to New Year's Eve, contesting the requirement to provide minimum services. The Lisbon Municipal Workers' Union (STML) and STAL file a judicial complaint and embargo, with no court decision yet. An arbitration panel rules for reduced services on December 26-28, covering one-third of usual operations, which unions argue is excessive. The strike may lead to rubbish piling up, continuing a recurring holiday issue.
