Lea Kayali, an organizer with the Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM), discusses a huge win for their “Mask Off Maersk” campaign: In Spain, two Israel-bound Maersk ships loaded with US-made weapons were blocked after months of pressure from activists and PYM’s campaign exposing the shipping giant’s violation of Spain’s arms embargo on Israel.
Kayali discusses where the global movement to stop arms to Israel goes next.
