Morocco and Gibraltar have a good relationship. Given that it is across the Med, this may be interesting, as some Gibraltarians have their roots from Morocco.
Morocco: pro-Palestine activists to protest Israeli warship 'docking' in Tangier port
In Morocco, pro-Palestine activists are set to take to the streets in protest of the alleged docking of an Israeli ship in Tangier port amid Tel Aviv's war on Gaza.
"The new Israeli Navy landing ship INS Komemiyut docked at the port of Tangier, Morocco, for supplies while sailing from the United States to Israel," revealed the Israeli newspaper Globes last week.
In early June, Israel's INS Komemiyut made a technical stop at the Tangier Med port during its journey from Pascagoula, Mississippi, in the United States to the naval base in Haifa, according to Israeli media. "At this stage in the voyage, the vessel turned off its position transponder," added Globes' report.
"Allowing the Israeli warship to dock is, unfortunately, a participation in the genocide of the Palestinian people, and support to the Israeli aggression on Gaza," said Mohamed El-Ghafry, coordinator of the Moroccan Front Against Normalisation.
In May, Spanish authorities refused a ship carrying weapons for Israel permission to dock at one of the country's ports.
The distance between Tangier Port and the closest port in Spain, which is Algeciras (In The Campo), is approximately 14 kilometres (about 9 miles) across the Strait of Gibraltar.
Late on Tuesday, 25 June, hundreds of pro-Palestine activists are set to gather in front of the parliament to protest.
