PARIS, Oct 13 (Reuters) - The FNME-CGT trade union, amid
the heart of the weeks-long strike in refineries and depots
disrupting petrol supply in France, called on Thursday for the
industrial action to be extended to the energy sector as a
whole.
    It said, in addition to ongoing strikes at refineries and
petrol storage sites, walkouts were also underway at five of
EDF's  EDF.PA  nuclear reactors while an Engie  ENGIE.PA  gas
storage facility also remained on strike.
