Pro-Palestinian protesters blocked ship in Tacoma
Hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters gathered at the Port of Tacoma at Terminal 7 to block what they believef to be a military ship bound for Israel on Nov 6, 2023. Roughly 300 people were gathered in various locations around the port entrance by late morning to prevent longshoremen from loading cargo on the 'Cape Orlando'. Some groups marched in circles. Some people waved Palestinian flags and some held signs that read “No Aid for Israel,” “Ceasefire now,” and “Resist Until Return.” Protesters believe the ship was meant to transport military equipment and weapons to Israel. B Protesters shut down lanes of traffic and multiple gates at the port with their cars, forcing ship workers to turn around. Tacoma police were on scene behind a fence at the terminal. The 'Cape Orlando' was previously in Oakland, California, where protesters delayed it from leaving for nine hours on Nov 3 by attempting to board the ship and tampering with mooring lines.
