The Communist Party of the Greece (KKE) reports that on Thursday 17 October, COSCO dockers at the Port of Piraeus detected a container full of bullets that had entered the country via North Macedonia and was bound for Haifa, Israel, to be used in the massacre of the Palestinian and Lebanese people. The COSCO dockers, led by their trade union, the Container Handling Workers’ Union at the Piers of Piraeus (ENEDEP), took decisive action to prevent the container from being loaded onto the ship and demonstrated on the spot, calling on the people of the region to join the demonstration.
Other workers of Piraeus, the Labour Centre of Piraeus, the Union of Metal Workers of Attica and the Shipbuilding and Repair Industry of Greece, the Shipwrights’ Union and a representative of the Union of Palestinian Workers took part in the demonstration.
The working class has shown its strength and is standing on the right side of history. On the side of the people of Palestine and Lebanon and not on the side of the “strategic allies” of the bourgeoisie who support the murderous state of Israel and the other Euro-Atlantic butchers of the peoples. This message makes the entire working class proud, and echoes the feelings of the Greek people who stand with the people of Palestine, Lebanon and the other peoples of the region.
