MSC too to skip the Suez Canal route

The Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC), World’s largest shipping line has decided to skip the Suez canal route to reach European Ports  from Asia and take to  circuitous route through Cape town in South Africa in view of the tensions building up in the Red sea channel.

 

MSC will continue to re-route vessels booked for Suez transit via the Cape of Good Hope, in the light of attack on its container ship while transiting the Red sea recently

 

MSC has confirmed that on December 26, the container ship MSC UNITED VIII was attacked while transiting the Red Sea. The vessel informed a nearby coalition task force warship of the attack and, as instructed, engaged in evasive manoeuvres.

 

The incident occurred at approximately while the MSC vessel was en route from King Abdullah Port, Saudi Arabia to Karachi, Pakistan.

Currently, all crew are safe with no reported injuries and a thorough assessment of the vessel is being conducted.
