The union said that it objects to Israeli military actions in Gaza and Lebanon, and allowing the cargo to pass could &quot;turn the workers and residents of Piraeus into a target for retaliation&quot; from Israel&#039;s enemies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;We call on the workers in the port and throughout Piraeus, the unions, the EKP, the youth to contribute with their presence so that we can stop the transfer of weapons,&quot; the union said. &quot;It is the moment to shout that we will not allow the port of Piraeus to become a base of war.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>The workers set up a blockade outside of the container terminal on Thursday night and stalled the truck&#039;s progress. As of Friday, the truck and container remained under port authority protection, and an arrest warrant has been issued for one leader from the Dockworkers&#039; Union, according to Reuters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>China Cosco&#039;s local terminal operations arm, Piraeus Container Terminal, said in a statement that it had to handle the container because of the terms of its concession contract for port operations.
