Morocco must ban docking of Maersk Denver, suspected of carrying weapons for genocidal Israel

The Maersk Denver is part of the Maersk fleet that is implicated in shipping US military supplies to Israel and is therefore reasonably suspected* of carrying illegal military cargo destined to Israel. This is in violation of a UNHRC resolution, a UNGA resolution, and statements by dozens of UN human rights experts, all calling for a military embargo on Israel due to its illegal occupation and its commission of a plausible genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza, as the ICJ determined earlier this year.

The MV Kathrin is a cargo vessel carrying military explosives to Israel, in violation of the Genocide Convention and the UN Human Rights Council call for a comprehensive military embargo on Israel. After Namibian authorities investigated and prevented the vessel from docking, releasing details about its criminal cargo, global mobilization is growing to stop the military supplies for apartheid Israel’s ongoing genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza from reaching their destination.
