Container Ship Freed in Suez Canal
Workers have successfully set free a container ship that has been stuck sideways across the Suez Canal for nearly two weeks.
The vessel was blocking one of the world’s most crucial arteries for trade.
A flotilla of tugboats managed to wrench the bow of the skyscraper-sized Ever Given from the sandy back of the waterway, where it had been lodged since last Tuesday.
