The event will witness the green-light go for the resumption of the ship’s voyage and a press conference will be held afterward. The MV EVER GIVEN went aground on March 23, 2021, in the 151st km of the Suez Canal, where vessels pass in both directions, causing the suspension of the international maritime navigation through the canal for six days. The situation complicated when an economic court in Ismailia governorate issued on April 13, 2021, a decision to officially arrest the ship until paying compensation. A Legal consultant, who asked not to be IDed, told Egypt Today on Monday that the case will be left to be dismissed by the court after a period of 60 days. The case will be dismissed by the court in order not to bear any financial judiciary fees on both sides (the SCA and the shipowners.)
