Approximately 100 seaports in 17 countries are scheduled to hold strikes and protests against Israel on Friday, October 30. The demonstrations are organized by the Ports in Action coalition of port unions and activists from the No Harbour For Genocide campaign, under the slogan "Port Workers Do Not Work for War." Significant disruptions are anticipated in Italy, Greece, and France. Italy will observe a 24-hour strike affecting the ports of Genoa, Livorno, Gioia Tauro, and Trieste. In Greece, a strike is planned for the port of Piraeus, with additional protests in Thessaloniki and other cities. France may experience disruptions at the ports of Marseille and Le Havre. According to an assessment by Israel's Ministry of Diaspora Affairs, these protests could disrupt supply chains and cargo transport to Israel, including through Mediterranean transit ports. The organizers are demanding an end to arms and military equipment shipments to Israel. A similar action in February 2026 involved around 20 ports across six countries.
