It is not yet clear how long it would take for the ship to be freed as a large amount of sand removal activity would be involved. All required measures are going on in full swing, considering the importance of the Suez canal for international trade.
Almost 10% of international cargo passes through the canal, connecting the Mediterranean to the Red Sea and is the shortest sea link between Asia and Europe.
Below is a list of all the nearby vessels that face possible delays due to this incident.
