general strike during the Franco regime in Hego Euskal Herria. Left movements ORT and MCE called against increased life and ETA joined the call. An estimated 223,000 people were mobilized.
Although the origin of the strike was labour, it had a marked political character. In fact, requests included the dissolution of repressive forces and special courts and the right to self-determination.
Francoist police fought demonstrators in different places, including with shots.
Urko Apaolaza, 11 December, general strike.
