Large container ship freed from Suez Canal after almost a week

A colossal container ship that’s been stuck sideways across the Suez Canal for nearly a week has been freed.

Officials say a flotilla of tugboats, helped by the peak of high tide, managed to free the ship that had been stuck since last Tuesday.

The canal is one of the world’s most crucial arteries for trade.
