News has been circulated that the Chairman of the Damietta Port Authority, Major Maritime General Tarek Adly Abdullah, confirmed that a team of six members successfully towed the gasification ship that was on fire onboard, moving it 3.5 kilometers out of the port after the fire occurred last week. He explained that the fire was initially limited, and marine rescue units were quickly and professionally deployed to handle it, ensuring the safety of facilities and preventing its spread. A decision was made to tow the ship after confirming that the crew had abandoned it to maintain safety. He affirmed that the towing operation was successful under exceptional circumstances, despite the presence of 15 ships and three petrochemical stations inside the port. The ministry also indicated that the ship requires repairs before further procedures are taken. This comes after Damietta Port underwent significant expansion, increasing its area to approximately 35 square kilometers, and expressed pride in the efficiency of its crisis management personnel.
