Rotterdam harbour is pretty notorious for human and drug trafficking operations actually.

Still stuck, they've suspended towing operations until thursday because of the bad weather.

Worst case scenario this could take a month.

Dutch engineers have arrived this morning to help fix the problem.
The Suez Canal is now officially closed.

So far they they think the vessel cannot be moved without removing the cargo first.
Which could take weeks.

I say we blow it up to save the economy.

This'll cost billions. Cause more shipping delays and further increases the price of a lot of consumer goods.
The best way out of this situation is to bomb it.

*Meanwhile somewhere in the multiverse*

"Mr. President, as you know the world economy is taking another hit because the Suez Canal is blocked. Is the US actively involved in helping Egypt resolve the situation?"

"look it doesn't look like... it doesn't look like it'll move so you have to you... have to... you have to get in there and you have to poke it with a stick, we call it 'poking'. But you know as they say we carry a very big stick in the United States. I call it a super stick.
*waves arms*
Al Sissi only has to call me and I will help him flush Suez. Actually it'll be deeper and work much better than ever before. The water would flow beautifully again. It is just not deep enough everyone's saying it but really if you think about it it is a very interesting situation with regards to the Suez"

"But sir, experts say that destroying the ship might result in a large oil spill and even damage the canal itself. It might also endanger the wildlife"

"Who? Who is saying that? Fake news is saying that. We all know oil burns, it'll burn, it'll burn away so quickly. And Egypt is wild, it's a wild place. Very wild. They like to be wild but they also like their economy so I feel very strongly about it"

Quote from: https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2021/04/13/ever-given-seized-egypt/
A few weeks ago, Egypt was frantically trying to get the massive container ship Ever Given out of the Suez Canal.

Now, authorities are saying the vessel is not allowed to leave.

In the latest complication to the ill-fated voyage, Egypt has seized the Ever Given over its owners’ “failure to pay an amount of $900 million,” the state-run news outlet Ahram Gate reported. That amount represents the total compensation that Egypt says it is owed for the six-day blockage of the Suez Canal
