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 actions in Gaza, led Greek authorities to keep the passengers aboard for safety reasons. The ship, operated by an Israeli company, was ultimately forced to skip the port call and reroute 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 international tensions and the impact of the Gaza conflict on Israeli travelers abroad.
