Anti-Israel activist organization Global Intifada has published an online mapping platform identifying factories, ports, vessels, and companies it says are connected to Israel’s military infrastructure, presenting the project as a tool to disrupt military supply chains linked to the State of Israel.

According to the organization, the platform tracks more than 54,000 vessels in real time and combines satellite-based Automatic Identification System data with cargo analysis, corporate ownership records, and a database of ports and manufacturing facilities.

The website describes its capabilities as including: “Real-time vessel tracking via satellite AIS,” “Confidence-scored cargo identification,” “Port and factory location database,” and “Corporate ownership network mapping.”

Global Intifada said the project seeks to trace the movement of military-related goods and materials.

The website states: “Weapons move through factories, trucks, ports, airports, cargo holds — from manufacturer to destination. F-35 components. Artillery shells. Materials for settlements. We gather what countless journalists, activists, dockers, and researchers have uncovered, so the pathways become clear.”

It added: “The Supply Chain Map is our first tool. We create — or amplify — infrastructure that strengthens movements for liberation and equality everywhere. If you need something built, we are listening.”

In a Tuesday post on Instagram, the group wrote: “They’ve all been mapped — the factories, the ports, the movements. So you can find your way in. This chain is global. So must be our resistance.”

The website also provides profiles of facilities and companies it links to Israel, assigning confidence ratings intended to reflect the reliability of the information presented.

According to a report by the Jerusalem Post, one UK-based manufacturer of F-16 drogue parachutes was assigned a 95% confidence rating because the company was described as supplying the product to Israel as well as to Greece and Turkey.

The report said facilities owned by Israeli defense company Elbit Systems were among those identified by the project because of their direct connection to Israel’s defense sector.

The Jerusalem Post also reported that a shipyard in Glasgow was assigned a 65% confidence rating despite not being identified as a builder of vessels for Israel, but rather because it was described as contributing to the “global naval design and technology ecosystem.”

The organization’s website also includes its interpretation of the term “intifada,” describing it as both “a spontaneous rising” and “the reflex of a people against suffocation.”
