WAFA reports a solidarity action at Port Elizabeth; calls to stop shipments are distinct from evidence that shipments stopped.

In a report published on 2 November 2026, WAFA described a pro-Palestinian protest at Port Elizabeth in New Jersey calling for an end to arms transfers to Israel. It reported a vehicle procession and calls to boycott Zim. The agency presented the action as part of an international campaign according to organisers, without establishing that the protest stopped a specific shipment. وكالة الأنباء والمعلومات الفلسطينية — WAFA
Context and what it means
For context on public pressure versus official decisions, the Congressional Research Service explains notification procedures for proposed arms sales and legislative mechanisms to oppose or modify them. A demand at a port is therefore different from a legal prohibition or cancelled sale. This background explains the decision-making process; it does not establish a new US action in response to this protest. Congressional Research Service / EveryCRSReport
