Key trade waterway remains impassable despite best efforts of tugboats, dredgers, diggers and winches to move the Ever Given
The mission to unblock the Suez canal after a vast container ship became wedged has entered its third day, as pressure builds on authorities to get one of the world’s key trade arteries flowing again.
Efforts to refloat the 220,000-ton, 400-metre-long Ever Given will resume early on Thursday after a brief overnight suspension, canal service provider Leth Agencies said, amid fears the operation could potentially take weeks if the vessel needs to be unloaded.
