A brief twitter thread on an extraordinary day in Egypt. After days of despair, the Suez Crisis is over.
Moment that Egyptian crew managed to free Vessel. Captain of crew breathing a sigh of relief, giving 👍🏽 and a “Hamdullah” (Thank goodness).

The hype is well deserved—It is miraculous that the Suez Canal refloated the #EverGiven vessel without offloading any of the 18,300 containers from the stranded vessel. The Egyptian dredgers shifted 27,000 tonnes of sand to a depth of 60 ft. #Evergreen #suezcanel #SuezUnblocked pic.twitter.com/TbpeLY8x7P
