Foreign media: The freighter carrying Ukrainian corn to China ran aground in the Suez Canal and has re-floated.

According to the latest report of the Associated Press, the Suez Canal Authority said on the afternoon of January 9 that the bulk carrier M.V.GLORY was re-floated after being stranded on the canal with the assistance of a tugboat, and the canal traffic resumed.

Combining the associated press report and tweets from canal service company "leth", the company earlier released an image showing the stranded cargo ship headed south, not being crossed in the middle of the canal, and three tugboats were assisting it to float again.

The Suez Canal is located at the crossover of Europe, Asia and Africa, connecting the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea. Revenue from the canal is one of the main sources of Egypt's state revenue and foreign exchange reserves.

In March 2021, the Taiwan Evergreen container ship "Changci" ran aground in the Suez Canal and was in the middle of the canal, causing traffic in the channel to be blocked for 6 days.
