The last ships that remain stuck after the stranding of the Ever Given, a giant container ship, in the Suez Canal should make it across the waterway this Saturday, according to the Canal authority, which said an investigation into the incident would report its finds soon.

Osama Rabie, president of the Suez Canal Authority (SCA), has assured that 85 ships are expected to cross the canal from both sides this Saturday.

This includes the last 61 ships of the 422 that were queued when the container ship Ever Given was evicted on Monday, thus ending the shipping collapse that accumulated during the crisis, he added.

International supply chains were disrupted when the 400-meter-long (430-yard) Ever Given ran aground on the vital commercial artery on March 23, and it

took

specialized rescue teams

almost a week to release it

after extensive dredging and repeated trawling operations, Reuters reports.

An SCA investigation began Wednesday to shed light on the causes of the ship running aground in the Suez Canal and blocking the waterway for six days, Rabie told MBC Masr private television on Friday night.

"The

investigation is going well and will take two more days,

then we will release the results," he added.
