EKHBARIYA cited a Monday report from the Palestinian Youth Movement and Oxfam
Denmark alleging Danish shipping giant Maersk transported ammunition cores,
brass casings, bomb bodies and mortar parts the report identifies as components
of Israeli weapons systems. The findings contradict Maersk’s policy prohibiting
shipments of "weapons or ammunition" to active conflict zones. Nadia Tannous of
the Palestinian Youth Movement said Maersk has publicly claimed it has strictly
enforced that policy since October 2023; the investigation, she said, directly
challenges those claims and asserts Maersk’s shipping activity has been crucial
to sustaining Israeli military capability.
