The Ever Given is no longer stuck and shipping has been resumed. From gCaptain:
Ever Given Freed Allowing Shipping to Resume Through Suez Canal
Shipping was on the move again late on Monday in Egypt’s Suez Canal after tugs refloated a giant container ship which had been blocking the channel for almost a week, causing a huge build-up of vessels around the waterway.
