A huge container ship is also trapped in the Suez Canal, Egypt, on the fifth day. The officers tried again to get the ship out and free the waterway from the jam, but the success was not achieved. Traffic in the Suez Canal, which is important for global transport and trade, has been disrupted due to the implication of this ship. Meanwhile, the head of the Suez Canal Authority said that strong wind is not the only reason for the ship ‘Ever Given’ being stuck in the canal on Tuesday.
Lieutenant General Osama Rabei said at a press conference on Saturday that the investigation was going on. But he did not rule out the possibility of human or technical flaws. The ship carrying the flag of Panama, carrying cargo between Asia and Europe, was trapped in this canal on Tuesday. Rabei said that he could not tell by when the ship would be taken out. A Portuguese company is trying to evacuate the ship with the help of high-rise waves and boats in the sea.
Containers can be removed by removing containers
Rabei said that he hopes that by clearing the sludge on the bottom of the canal, the ship can be removed without removing its cargo, but he also said that we are in a difficult situation, this is a bad event. Asked how long the ship can be taken out, he said, I cannot tell because I do not know. The ship-owning company, Shoei Kisen, said it would consider removing its containers if attempts to take the ship out failed.
Some success was found in removing the back of the ship
According to the Bernhard Schutt Shipmanagement Company, on Saturday, an attempt was made to take out the ship twice. But success was not achieved. The company had said that some success was achieved late on Friday night, when the rear of the ship came out slightly from the sediment of the canal. It said that about a dozen small ships have been trying to take the ship out since Saturday. For this, they are trying to remove mud and sand from under the ship.
