OAPEC has initiated an oil boycott against the Netherlands, causing ships to divert from the port of Rotterdam. Rotterdam handles 25% of OAPEC's oil destined for northwestern Europe. The Dutch government's support for Israel, including allowing the United States to use Dutch airports for transporting weapons and military equipment, led to the belief in the Arab world that the Netherlands was supporting Israel. Ships previously bound for the Netherlands have changed their routes toward other countries.
