Massive Cargo Ship Becomes Wedged, Blocks Egypt’s Suez Canal The MV Ever Given, a Panama-flagged ship that carries cargo between Asia and Europe, ran aground Tuesday in the narrow, man-made canal dividing continental Africa from the Sinai Peninsula. Images showed the ship’s bow was touching the eastern wall, while its stern looked lodged against the western wall—an extraordinary event that experts said they had never heard of happening before in the canal’s 150-year history.

Last modified: 2 Apr 2021, 22:20:36 UTC Oh deer Around here here you need to watch out for wallabies, kangaroos, kites (small bird), bustards, eagles, cattle, horses and as you head south there's emus, sheep, camels, goats and of course way down south wombats & the occasional deer. Then of course you need to keep an eye out for the dumb animals that are driving other cars... Daytime is bad enough, but it's why i avoid driving at night on rural roads.
