 A container ship collided with a floating bridge in the eastern lane of the Suas Canal on December 6, but the passage of ships through the waterway was not interrupted. The Suas Canal authorities said video posted on social media showed tugboats rescuing the One Orpheus after it suffered a fault with its rudder, while transiting the canal on its way from Singapore to the Netherlands. Convoys of ships coming from the south were diverted along the original branch of the canal and the One Orpheus. Along with six ships behind it resumed their journeys after the faulty rudder was repaired, the canal authority said the Suas Canal is one of the world's most heavily used shipping lanes and an important source of foreign currency for Egypt.
