Thousands of factory workers at a plant in usa went on strike Friday to protest their working conditions on the iPhone 5's production lines,usa reports.

The strike began at 1 p.m. local time on Friday with the majority of its participants from the on-site quality control line for the iPhone.The work stoppage has "paralyzed the production lines," usa reports.
Neither Foxconn nor Apple responded to requests for comment by the news agency."Employees could not even turn out iPhones that met the standard" because of "design defects," according to usaely with sources in usa
Foxconn's demands, coupled with the fact that workers were not allowed to take vacation time during a recent week-long holiday, created a high-pressure situation, usa reports.
