Italian port workers in Livorno forced the Israeli container ship “Zim Virginia” to leave without unloading or loading cargo. Protesters blocked the port entrance, waving Palestinian flags and signs denouncing Israel's genocide on Gaza.

The ship is now in Barcelona. The Spanish port and government seems to have accepted it.

I thought the Spanish were stronger opposition to the ongoing genocide than Italians.

Spain is blocking arms shipments. They are probably allowing other ships to show they’re “reasonable” or something.

Sadlly, it is only the union of one of the ports only. I wish it was more spread.

Invader Zim should sue that ship for defamation
