<div class="field field-field-text"><p>Dock workers at the port of Piraeus have said that they will refuse to unload the Ever Golden, a container ship carrying military-grade steel to Israel, when it arrives in Greece.</p>
<p>“We will not unload a single inch of this murderous cargo,” Enedep, the union of dock workers at Athens’s port city, said on Tuesday.</p>
<p>“The dock workers of Piraeus will not be complicit. We will not unload military steel from the Ever Golden - no to Greece’s involvement - freedom for <a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/countries/palestine" target="_blank">Palestine</a>,” the workers said.</p>
<p>According to the ship and container tracking site <a href="https://www.vesselfinder.com/vessels/details/9811012%C2%A0" target="_blank">Vessel Finder</a>, the Ever Golden, which is Japanese-owned and sails under the flag of Panama, was sailing off the coast of West Africa on Tuesday morning.</p>
<p>It is expected to reach Piraeus on 14 July. Once it arrives there, its cargo is intended to be moved to another container ship, the Folk Dammam, and taken on to Israel.</p>

At approx 11:10pm tonight, a drone hovered above the Madleen, while in international waters, 80 nautical miles south of Greece. Thankfully, it passed without incident. Our ground team is investigating.

Take one minute: go to bit.ly/IsraelOnNotice and send a letter to the Israeli government, UN officials, and diplomatic missions demanding that Israel abide by international law and refrain from attacking, sabotaging or otherwise interfering with the #Madleen and her mission.

As of this moment, the Maltese Coast Guard has not responded to the Freedom Flotilla’s SOS. 30 humanitarian aid volunteers are on board a civilian vessel in distress 17nm off the coast of Malta. If anything happens to them, in addition to Israel, Malta will be responsible. Contact info for PM.

BREAKING! One of the @freedomflotilla.bsky.social ships has come under attack in international waters. Drones struck the front of the civilian vessel twice, causing a fire and breach in the hull. Drones are still circling the boat endangering the lives of the volunteers on board. #FreedomFlotilla

Israel is deliberately starving 2 million people in Gaza-exterminating an entire population and not a single gov on Earth is acting to stop it.
This is like watching Nazis march people into gas chambers and choosing to look away. History is repeating itself. This time the entire world is complicit.

Rubio is presumably intending to rely on the same provision of the INS and claim that Mahdawi’s presence in the US purportedly harms the government’s foreign policy goal of fighting antisemitism. This is Mahdawi on 60 Minutes last year.

The gov presented NO evidence that #MahmoudKhalil is guilty of what they accuse him of. The basis for this ruling is an obscure sec of the Immigration Act that allows the Sec of State to determine that an immigrant’s presence in the country could have adverse affect on foreign policy.

This is outrageous! Immigrants are entitled to full First Amendment protections.
This is an assault on the very foundations of our Constitution. If we don’t stop this now, citizens will be next.
To be clear, this isn’t about combatting antisemitism, it’s about shielding Israel from criticism.
