Belgian trade unions ask to prevent the transfer of weapons to the Zionist regime

Belgian transport unions in a statement demanded that the loading and unloading of military equipment that would be sent to the Zionist regime be prevented. According to Reuters, the ACV Plus, BTB, BBTK and ACV-Transcom unions in a joint statement on Tuesday asked their members to refrain from loading and unloading military equipment that is being exported to the Zionist regime for the war against the Palestinians. The statement reads: While genocide is taking place in Palestine, employees at several airports have witnessed weapons being flown into the war zone. These unions emphasized that loading and unloading these weapons means collaborating with organizations that kill innocent people. In the statement, they also demanded an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and asked the Belgian government to prevent the transfer of weapons through the country's airports. At the same time, a representative of the Belgian government refused to comment on the possibility of transferring weapons to Israel through the country’s airports. In recent days, hundreds of thousands of people have demonstrated in cities around the world, declaring their support for the oppressed people of Palestine. Operation Al-Aqsa Storm enters its 25th day as news reports intensify the Zionist regime's brutal attacks on Gaza's residential, medical and school areas, and the area is being bombarded from land, sea and sky by the apartheid regime Tel Aviv with deadly weapons. Meanwhile, the Washington authorities are trying in every possible way to provide comprehensive support to the Zionist regime.
