Egyptian ports boost Israel's economy amid Gaza genocide
Egyptian seaports have turned into important stations for cargo and cement ships transporting goods to and from Israel during the Gaza war period, that’s according to an investigation published by Arabi Post last week.
The probe tracked the activity of 19 ships over the past three months, using an open-source maritime data to trace the sea routes of these ships, which were limited to travelling back and forth between Israeli and Egyptian ports.
During the same period, no ships from Arab countries other than Egypt arrived at Israeli ports, the online news outlet reported.
Egyptian ports are vital points for transporting goods to and from Israel due to their proximity to Israeli ports, especially Ashdod Port, which is about 29 kilometers away from Gaza, as well as the strategic Haifa Port.
This comes amid growing calls in Arab and Islamic countries for imposing sanctions on Israel over its genocidal war on Gaza.
