An act of civil disobedience transpired at the Port of Oakland in California where supporters of the Palestinian cause disrupted proceedings. Their presence at the port, and the consequent obstruction of a U.S. government vessel, was triggered by disagreement with the American backing for Israel.

As reported by KTVU, the Arab Resource and Organizing Center spearheaded the demonstration, amassing roughly 200 individuals near The Cape Orlando, a merchant marine vessel overseen by the Department of Transportation. The gathering escalated around 8 o'clock on Friday morning.

Following the initial group's movement, a similarly sized contingency set up a second site of demonstration by the gate after the port authorities sealed off the entrance. The report suggests an air of determination amongst these individuals, emphasizing their shared cause.

Local news outlet CBS News provided further details on the escalation, noting that among the demonstrators, three stalwart individuals took the protest a step further by attaching themselves to a ship barrier mechanism.

Moving from passive demonstration to active resistance, these individuals held fast to a rope ladder in an attempt to prevent workers from securing one of the ship's doors.
