Trade unions operating in the seaports of Naples and Livorno in Italy yesterday (Monday) refused to load security goods destined for Israel, following IDF activity in the Gaza Strip in Operation The Guardian of the Walls. The ports in Israel do not handle Italian ships moored in Israeli ports. Edri's directing led the Israeli embassy in Italy to operate, and as of this morning the crisis was resolved, the port workers in Italy took care of the ship, and the port workers in Israel returned to take care of Italian ships.
The Italian workers' union that refused to take care of the Israeli ship in Livorno is "L'Unione Sindacale di Base". The Italian union said that "the port of Livorno will not be a partner in the massacre of the Palestinian people." The port refused to take care of the ship after the union received a report of its arrival from an Italian human rights organization called "Weapon Watch", which monitors the import and export of weapons and ammunition in European and Mediterranean ports.
"The world of trade unions, unfortunately, touches on political issues instead of addressing workers 'rights," Avi Edri, chairman of the Histadrut's Transportation Workers' Union, told Calcalist this morning. According to Edri, he chose to respond immediately so that the incident did not continue. A ship bringing goods from Italy The shipping companies operated the Ministry of Transportation and this eventually led the Israeli Embassy in Italy to operate and release the Israeli goods in Italy.
