Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim commended the Malaysian Border Control and Protection Agency (AKPS) for their prompt action in intercepting a container at the Port of Tanjung Pelepas in Johor on Friday. The container was believed to be carrying strategic goods destined for Israel, according to AKPS. The prime minister highlighted this move as a testament to Malaysia's commitment to preventing the country from becoming a transit route for trade that supports the Israeli regime's actions against the Palestinian people.
It also aligns with Malaysia's adherence to The Hague Group principles and the ban on Israeli ships using Malaysian ports since December 2023. Anwar reiterated Malaysia's dedication to upholding humanity, justice, and international law while defending the rights and dignity of the Palestinian people.
