    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Junior doctors across Wales are starting a three-day strike over pay as the Welsh government and hospital leaders warned of the pressures that health services are under.

    The Welsh health minister, Eluned Morgan, said the impact on services was expected to be significant, but added that care in urgent and life-threatening cases would continue.

    The stoppage follows an unprecedented six-day strike by junior doctors in England that ended last week and led to more than 110,000 patients having care cancelled.

    The union said doctors would be present at picket lines outside all of Wales’s main hospital sites as well as taking their concerns to members of the Senedd with a planned mass demonstration on Tuesday.

    Babs-Osibodu and Fahey said: “Our members have been forced to take this difficult decision because junior doctors in Wales have experienced a pay cut of 29.6% in real terms over the last 15 years.”

    The health minister said pay restoration for junior doctors in Wales was impossible without a significant increase in funding from the UK government.
