For the sixth consecutive day, the megaship Ever Given remains stuck in the Suez Canal, after grounding on Tuesday 23rd of March, leaving more than 300 ships, including dozens of container ships and bulk carriers, unable to use the key trading route. Salvage efforts are ongoing while progress depends on wind conditions and tides. On 28 March, the Egyptian President, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, ordered preparations for lightening the ship's cargo.
