Pumping its fuel out to barges may be a quicker option than offloading some of its many containers.
No disgrace out there , the canal team worked as per a protocol in such cases and they have succeeded .
I don't know what this has to do with that train accident but anyway they are working on a new transportation projects including upgrading infrastructure , trucks,signaling systems ,new railway lines, 23 b$ high-speed rail network for 1000 km , new underground metro lines ,monorail project, 10000 km of roads which will serve the new 14 new city being built including the new capital .

Re: Suez Canal block March 2021
They need to widen it along its entire length, for 2 way traffic.
Will the EverGiven story change the entire global economy and logistics?

The Government is reflecting on the risks of high sided ships in the canal.

In radio communication over means that you are finished speaking AND that you are expecting a reply, while out means that you are ending the communication and that you are NOT expecting a reply.
Putting them together would just confuse the other person, since it is not clear if you want a reply or not.

I am pretty sure that if Ever Given tries sailing in general direction of Suez ever again the Egyptian Navy will open fire without warning

Re: Suez Canal block March 2021
Chinese manufacturers, exporters and shipping firms whose vessels and consignments are still stuck in the logjam of the Suez Canal are scrambling to find detours for their wares. This is despite news on Monday that the Egyptian operator of the waterway has freed the container ship which ran aground and stymied intercontinental trade flow a week ago.

I understand fully what you are saying but you obviously didn't grow up watching early British WW2 films.

You're right to a certain extent but mostly wrong since that entry way is a concrete barrier that needs delicacies and not so often dredging, Check pic of converted shore which Egyptian quotiety didn't hesitate one bit to destroy and et pub a bulldozer immediately.
Granted I'm a smalltime seaman with onmy a 30 foot Chaparral but that must have been much more than wind to push that thing over and why destroy our banks for the sake of a dumbass captain not controlling his prop power and rudder.
The rest of the bank is GORGEOUS and the Eatern side is mostly left untouched so we cans show tousirts the devastation we put on Israhell inqi73, Check out the pics on google

You know that the Israhellis practiced ones in 1957 and also war of attrition which was a stalemate since they couldn't believe our pilots in MiG-17s and 21 challenges their A4s and F-4 Phantoms not to mention our hidden Sams.
The defensive network for all around country protection is unreal and 1000x better than what they're capable of offering as offensive weapons. Once we get out GORGROUS Su-35SE I hope with the 260kh range 37M, they'll NEVER dream of such bold ideas lol.
Besides, let's face it, Israel is actually an economic partner which just gave us $15B to liquidate their gas. Why would they suicided attack us lol?

It was a Dutch company with some bluewater tugs which finally got the ship free. The other tugs were some motorised canoes with a lot of horns and screaming crews and a silly excavator trying to dig out a 15 meter draft ship
From first hand, although a long time ago, when it was praying time the Egyptian pilot was rolling out his praying carpet and started praying, leaving the 200+ mtr ship in the hands of the captain. You have to set your priorities.....

There were 11 Egyptian tugboats along with the two of Dutch tugboats .
This excavator is not silly , it was a part of the work by removing the near mud on the front of the ship untill they brought dredgers in and dug 30,000 cubic metres of sand from beneath the ends of the ship.

Good ole' SaudiMight promises, remember when they made promises towards the Russkies? Pepperidge Farm remembers!
I wonder if the SaudiMight's will serve Victoria Nuland's famous cakes alongside the obvious carrot on a stick?

Saudis helped Egypt only on the last revolution because they are against Muslim Brotherhood but those projects are being funded by Egypt's own budget ,Saudis have their own financial problems now ,they can't fund such mega projects and they have no reason to do that .The Saudis are really lavishing Egypt aren't they?
Only question is, what are they asking in return?
When your capital city looks like this there is no more salvaging to be done
Although the photo is somehow misleading as you can see on the below zoomed photo but urban areas were always a headache on Egypt .
On the last 5 years ,many of these areas were completely removed and replaced by a well planned and organized areas providing low income citizens with affordable housing with complete furnature for free or with a symbolic price .
The Below photos for developed areas ,before and after .Also Egypt is building around 20 new city with a capacity of 30 million of people .
Some of the new cities .

Re: Suez Canal block March 2021
the suez canal block , there is evidence that this was a planned operation , a false flag ,
a Freemason operation of the british and the US , to damage europe and china economy.
there is a discussion about this with incredible coincidences ,that you will not believe.
and things the ever given did ,before it enter the suez channel.
- Evergreen is the name of a former CIA airliner.
- The owner of the ship that blocked the channel is evergreen ,and live in US , american citizen.
- The simposons address is evergreen , and they produced a chapter ,that predict a major blockade
,that looks from satellite like the suez channel.
this things does not happen by accident, US intel agencies , and its elites , likes the brag about
the future operations , by throwing hints at the media industry they control , games ,movies
and cartoons too , as they do with the simpsons , that its owner is a free mason.
So interesting videos to see ,that strongly suggest this suez channel blocking
was a test, by the anglo masonic west elites, to see how much time it takes egypt to unblock
the channel and how much damage this cause on china and europe economy. Because this was a
test , it means , that the next time they can literary sink the container ship in the channel , to keep it blocked for many months or years with the enormous cost in restoring the channel .
So egypt need to arrest the entire crew , and keep them permanently in jail , and demand international arrest of the owner of the ship. this have very strong indication was a false flag
operation , an economic terrorist attack , by the west , on China and europe. so big ship , cannot be allowed to be navigated by any foreign crew and need to be moved only by egyptian authorities , i think they do this in the panama channel too. there is no free traveling there but highly controlled how and where the navigation happens ,by machines at both sides of the channel.
So major modernization will have to be done on the channel to prevent future terror attacks .
videos to see..
simpsoms suspicious chapter showing suez channel block.
Ever Given ,the impossible coincidences. (translation of title)
for the second video ,use youtube own substitles.
Autotranslate (on) -> English.
the video also show , how a truck in china caused a major traffic jam ,that was also called
ever green . this is the kind of mentality , that western elites behind false flags have , they
like to send messages , of the things they planning. And expect another major blockade
of the suez channel ,but with sinking of big ship. This is war what is happening , economic war
by anglowestern elites on their Russo-chinnese adversaries and force europe to buy from US everything.
