Activists Block Access to Maersk Headquarters to Protest Arms Shipments to Israel

HeadlineFeb 25, 2025

In Denmark, about 20 activists were arrested at the Maersk shipping company’s Copenhagen headquarters Monday as they protested its role in fueling Israel’s weapons supply. Among those protesting was prominent Swedish activist Greta Thunberg.

Greta Thunberg: “We’re currently outside Maersk, one of the biggest shipping companies in the world, that the last year, only the last year, has shipped thousands of tons of military equipment to Israel to arm them during their genocide in Gaza. And we are here to demand that Maersk must stop all the transportation of weapons and weapon components to Israel. They must terminate all contracts and investment that support the genocide and occupation of Palestine.”
