JAKARTA - A wave of protests took place on a number of major islands and ports on the route of the Crown Iris cruise ship in Greece. The ship, which is part of the donators, is on duty.

At the Port of Piraeus, near Athens, Greece, on Thursday 14 August, a mass of protests carried flares or flares and raised the Palestinian flag against riot police who chased them closer to the cruise ship.

The person in charge of this mass action, Markos Bekris, said Israeli soldiers who were not on duty were among the passengers of cruise ships anchored in Greece.

"They are not wanted here and don't deserve to be here," Markos said during an oration, quoted by AFP.

"Blood of innocent people is in their hands, and we shouldn't welcome them," he continued.

Greece is one of the favorite tourist destinations for Israelis. However, the ongoing war in Gaza and global attention to widespread damage, severe food shortages have led to many cases of acute malnutrition having sparked hundreds of anti-Israel protests in Athens and other Greek cities.

Greek internal political confrontations also occurred as a result of Israel's arbitrary actions in Palestine. As evidence, Greek left-wing opposition parties have urged conservative governments to stop extensive commercial and military cooperation with Israel.
