On October 6, 2026, a strike by the Asociación Gremial de Trabajadores del Subterráneo y Premetro (AGTSyP) disrupted Buenos Aires subway Line A from 19:00 until closing due to wage deductions by Emova. On October 20, a surprise strike halted all six subway lines and the Premetro, following the detention of two workers protesting outsourced maintenance tasks.
