What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A global dockworkers’ strike, organized by the 'Dockworkers Don’t Work for War' coalition, began across 113 ports to protest military supply chains supporting Israel’s war on Gaza. Local unions in Greece, Italy, Spain, Turkey, and Morocco issued a joint call for an end to wars in the Middle East. In Greece, the ENEDEP dockworkers’ union called a strike at Piraeus, the country’s largest port.
