Maersk Makes Another Voyage Through Red Sea in Test of Safety

A.P. Moller-Maersk A/S has safely sailed another ship through the southern part of the Red Sea, its second successful attempt after most shipping lines have avoided the area for two years.

The voyage marks another step toward normalization of global supply lines, after Yemen-based Houthis in 2023 began attacking vessels, forcing shipowners to sail south of Africa. Maersk said it will now continue to “gradually” resume transits as the security situation seems to approve.
