An increasing number of ships are backing up in Egypt's Great Bitter Lake, as attempts to dislodge the Ever Given from blocking the key trade route have failed. It could take 'days to weeks' to refloat the ship, experts said.

The canal provides the shortest link from Asia to Europe by connecting the Mediterranean to the Red Sea.'s Suez Canal was unlikely Thursday, with efforts to pull a stranded, massive ship yielding little progress and the head of a newly hired rescue team saying it can take"days to weeks" to re-float the vessel.

"It is, in a manner of speaking, a very heavy whale on the beach," Berdowski told Dutch program Nieuwuur on Wednesday."The ship, with the weight it now has, can't really be pulled free. You can forget it." Egypt said it halted all navigation in the canal on Thursday, having briefly allowed 13 vessels in Port Said to move southwards on Wednesday only after realizing that rescue efforts were taking longer than initially estimated.Stranded container ship Ever Given, one of the world's largest container ships, is seen after it ran aground, in Suez Canal, March 25, 2021.

My washing machine part is coming from Korea. Good thing it’s going to Los Angeles and not through the Suez Canal I’d hate for it to be delayed or a week or two.

Hard to believe one ship wedged in the Sues canal can stop a major portion of the worlds commerce .

Evergreen or evergiven ?

I’m wondering if this was done on purpose.

Free it before somebody sinks it and that REALLY f***s up international commerce!!
