Cargo risk prompts Damietta port rescue
The incident targeting two gas ships at the Port of Damietta reveals the ability of rescue units to respond quickly to similar crises. Rescue teams managed to evacuate the damaged vessel within just two hours, despite it containing approximately 60,000 cubic meters of gas—enough to cause an explosion with a 15-kilometer radius. Four sea tugs were used to tow the ship away from the threatened facilities, while the fire was swiftly brought under control. The second ship was also safely evacuated without exacerbating the damages. The successful operation demonstrated the efficiency of the rescue team in handling an extremely difficult situation, and officials confirmed that the rapid response prevented a major catastrophe.
