Demonstrators, holding Palestinian flags and banners condemning Israel's actions in Gaza, blocked the port and prompted Greek authorities to keep the Israeli tourists on board as a precaution. The ship, operated by Mano Cruise, was forced to skip its planned stop and reroute to Cyprus. The incident has sparked diplomatic discussions between Israel and Greece, with Israeli officials urging Greece to address the situation.
