KATMANDU, Nepal — Nepal’s former communist rebels ended their general strike late Friday after six days because of the hardship it caused in the Himalayan country.
Transportation, schools and businesses were closed in Katmandu and other cities during the strike aimed at pushing out the present coalition government. Opposition to the strike had been increasing, and police fired warning shots at a rally Friday to control clashes between Maoist supporters and opponents.
