Malaysia has instituted a ban preventing all cargo ships bearing the Israeli flag from accessing its ports, citing the conflict in Gaza as the rationale.
Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim declared this decision on Wednesday, accusing Israel of violating international law and engaging in a "massacre and brutality against Palestinians." The ban specifically targets ZIM, Israel's largest shipping company, and comes amidst heightened concerns globally over disruptions to maritime trade due to attacks on cargo ships in the Red Sea.
Additionally, the Prime Minister emphasised that vessels en route to Israel would be prohibited from loading cargo at Malaysian ports.
