A cruise ship carrying around 1,600 Israeli tourists was prevented from docking at the Greek island of Syros due to a large pro-Palestinian protest against Israel's actions in Gaza.
Protesters blocked the port, leading Greek authorities to keep the Israeli passengers onboard as a precaution. The ship, operated by Mano Maritime, was ultimately forced to skip its planned stop and reroute to Cyprus. The incident prompted diplomatic discussions between Israeli and Greek officials, with Israel urging Greece to address the situation.
This event highlights how the Gaza conflict is affecting Israelis abroad, with rising tensions and protests impacting travel and tourism.
