Detailed explanation-1: -In March 2021, the Suez Canal was blocked for six days by the Ever Given, a container ship that had run aground in the canal.
Detailed explanation-2: -Goods in the Ever Given’s 18, 000 total containers have an estimated value of $775m, but many of them will hold fruit and vegetables which will have to be destroyed, having passed their use-by date. The bulk of the containers were offloaded at Rotterdam prior to its journey to Felixstowe.
Detailed explanation-3: -CAIRO - When the Ever Given - one of the largest container ships ever built, more sideways skyscraper than boat - got stuck in the Suez Canal for six days in March, it dammed up worldwide shipping and froze nearly $10 billion in trade a day. For the internet, it was a bottomlessly amusing spectacle.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Panama-flagged Ever Given, a colossal container ship, crashed into a bank on a single-lane stretch of the canal in March 2021, blocking the waterway for six days.
