Unrest in the Egyptian city of Port Said has not affected traffic in the Suez Canal, a spokesman for the strategic waterway said on Saturday according to state news agency MENA.
"The canal is far away of any political situation the country is facing and is safe and open to all ships passing through it," Suez Canal spokesman Tarek Hassanein told MENA. "Attempts by some citizens to stop car ferries from crossing ... in the city of Port Said did not affect navigation in the canal," he added. (Reuters)
