Egypt’s Ports Working on Limited Basis, Inchcape Says
This article is for subscribers only.
Egypt’s ports are mostly operating on a limited basis because of a lack of staff and the Suez Canal, used to carry about 8 percent of global seaborne trade, is working normally, Inchcape Shipping Services reported.
The port of Alexandria is accepting vessels to discharge cargoes and Damietta is restricted to container ships, Inchcape said in a notice on its website today. The east of Port Said is closed and the west has limited operations.
