In a historic move, Samsung Electronics is bracing for its first-ever worker strike after a union representing tens of thousands of employees announced a one-day walkout on June 7. 🚨 The strike could ripple through global tech supply chains, threatening the production of semiconductors vital to everything from smartphones to AI.
