A cruise ship carrying around 1,600 Israeli tourists was prevented from docking at the Greek island of Syros after hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters gathered at the port.
The demonstration, sparked by opposition to Israel's military actions in Gaza, led Greek authorities to keep the passengers aboard and ultimately reroute the ship to Cyprus. The incident has drawn condemnation from both Greek and Israeli officials, with Greece promising to address the situation and denouncing antisemitism. The event highlights growing tensions and the impact of the Gaza conflict on Israeli travelers abroad.
It also raises concerns about the safety and reception of Israeli tourists in international destinations amid ongoing geopolitical disputes.
