Reports say there has been “some progress” in the task of unleashing giant ships on the Suez Canal

On Saturday afternoon, rescue crews released the crew and rudder of the giant ship Evergreen. The world’s largest container ship will block the Suez Canal.

Several international media outlets have reported some progress in the task of getting rid of the giant ship.

Evergreen ran into a sandstorm at 06:00 Norwegian time on Tuesday. At the southern end of the Suez Canal, she sat almost across. Thus, she effectively blocked all other ships. This canal connects the Red Sea and the Mediterranean and is very important for transporting goods from and around Asia.

Every day, about 50 cargo ships pass through the canal. The line of ships at both ends exceeded 300.

On Saturday, about 20,000 tons of sand was dug around the bow. The Dutch company involved in the work writes, hoping you can loosen the ship early next week News agency Reuters.
