The ship is the newest addition to Evergreen’s A-type vessel series and can carry over 24,000 containers.
The head of the Suez Canal Authority, Lieutenant General Osama Rabie, said that the successful transit of the ship proves the readiness of the Suez Canal to handle current and future generations of large ships. The authority said that its development strategy involves direct communication with shipping lines and shipyards to exchange information and ensure future ships are able to navigate the canal safely.
