Genoa set the stage for new anti-armament mobilizations in Italy: dockworkers protested arms transfers to Israel, while the public rejected plans that would turn their city into a hotpoint of NATO’s war machine.

“The evening assembly was also very lively,” José Nivoi from the Autonomous Collective of Port Workers (Collettivo Autonomo dei Lavoratori Portuali, CALP) and the local union chapter of Unione Sindacale di Base (USB) told Peoples Dispatch. “Around 150 people took part – mostly members of the general public, not just activists – and joined a discussion on the plans to transform the port into dual-use military infrastructure.”

Israeli occupation forces once again assaulted a Freedom Flotilla vessel and abducted its civilian crew on the night of July 26, 2025.

“The unarmed boat was carrying life-saving supplies when it was boarded by Israeli forces, its passengers abducted, and its cargo seized,” the Freedom Flotilla Coalition stated. “All cargo was non-military, civilian, and intended for direct distribution to a population facing deliberate starvation and medical collapse under Israel’s illegal siege.”
