Another Ship Briefly Runs Aground in Suez Canal, Navigation Not Affected

CAIRO (Sputnik) – Another container ship briefly run aground in Suez Canal on Friday, and the incident did not affect the marine navigation, the canal’s administration said.

According to the administration, the incident did not affect the marine navigation at the canal.

​The 400-meter-long container ship Ever Given became wedged in one of the world’s busiest trade routes in March, creating a backlog of vessels waiting to cross through the canal which connects the Red Sea to the Mediterranean. After several attempts, the ship was eventually refloated and towed to the Great Bitter Lake where it remains under arrest.
