$2.3M Fines Per Voyage After Spain Blocks Weapons Shipments To Israel

The United States is considering penalties against Spain after Spanish authorities denied port access to cargo vessels carrying US weapons to Israel.

Spanish officials have said that ships carrying arms for Israel will not be allowed to call at Spanish ports in the future.

The commission stated that it is continuing its investigation and is considering possible responses, including limiting cargo movements, denying entry to Spanish-flagged vessels at US ports, or imposing fines of up to $2.3 million per voyage.
