No Harbour for Genocide: Indian Dockworkers Join Global Anti-War Action Across 15 Ports on October 30

Indian dockworkers from the Water Transport Workers' Federation of India (WTWFI) will participate in a global day of action on October 30 against war and port militarization. This is part of the "No Harbour for Genocide" campaign, involving 15 Indian ports and international solidarity actions across Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Unions demand an end to arms shipments, oppose military use of civilian ports, and call for redirecting public funds to healthcare and worker rights. The WTWFI previously refused to handle weaponized cargo bound for Israel and endorsed the Istanbul Declaration. Organizers expect widespread strikes, potentially halting 40,000 containers valued over $2 billion. Risks include retaliation against workers challenging military supply chains. The campaign also documents thousands of shipments linked to Israeli arms manufacturers and U.S. military logistics moving through global ports, emphasizing broader support for dockworkers facing repression.
