That's it. That's the best picture from Saturday's No Kings protests in the USA. The literal Statue of Liberty being detained by police. It doesn't get much more poetic than this.

Behind every vessel stuck in the Gulf is a crew trying to hold it together. Right now, seafarer helplines are being flooded with calls from crews asking for repatriation, compensation, and basic supplies. The IMO says around 20,000 seafarers are still stranded in the Persian Gulf. Many are dealing with stress, fear, and long days without clear answers. A few ships are running behind schedule. Some people are unable to move. And those who are most affected are the crews on board. Every ship has a crew that is eager to return home. ⚓ Let’s not forget them. #seafarers #maritime #shipping #CrewWelfare #gulf #ships

The world is outraged about goods and trade disrupted by the closure of Hormuz. But the thousands of seafarers trapped in that war zone? Silence. These are the very people whose courage and labour will eventually put those goods on your shelves. seatrade-maritime.com/crewing/the-in…
