On March 26, the rescue vessel carried out operations at the site where a heavy cargo ship ran aground on the Suez Canal in Egypt. 

On the 23rd, a heavy cargo ship flying the Panamanian flag ran aground on the new channel of the Suez Canal, causing a blockage of the channel. 

The Suez Canal connects the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea. It is located at the key point of the intercontinental belt of Europe, Asia and Africa. About 12% of world trade is transported through this canal. 

According to media reports, about 200 ships have been blocked since the cargo ship ran aground. Analysts believe that if the canal cannot be opened as soon as possible, it may have a major impact on the global shipping market, adding "new worries" to the shipping industry that is already facing tight capacity. 

But don't worry, if you place order today, when delivery is coming, and this canal has been unblocked already, because our leadtime 30 days is enough for dredging the river.19
