The UN special rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territory has praised Namibia for “rightfully denying” port access to a ship reportedly carrying explosives to Israel.
Francesca Albanese said on X she had received information that the Portuguese-flagged Kathrin is carrying eight containers of explosives that are “reportedly key components in the aircraft bombs and missiles that Israel is deploying against besieged Gaza”.
She warned that countries potentially helping the ship, risk breaching the Genocide Convention as well as a UN Human Rights Council resolution “mandating an arms embargo on Israel”.
