Status Update: Red Sea Developments & Egyptian Port Operations
In light of recent developments in the Red Sea, particularly the escalation of Houthi activity near the Bab El-Mandeb Strait off the coast of Yemen, we wish to reassure our clients and partners that all Egyptian ports remain fully operational and secure.
The affected area lies significantly south of Egypt’s territorial waters, and there have been no reported risks or security concerns relating to vessels transiting through or calling at:
Ain Sokhna Port
The Suez Canal
Alexandria, Dekheila, Abu Qir, Damietta and other Mediterranean ports
Port operations across Egypt continue as normal, with all key infrastructure functioning efficiently and under strict monitoring by local authorities.
We continue to follow the situation closely and remain in contact with port officials and maritime stakeholders to provide timely updates.
For any specific inquiries related to port calls, risk assessments, or shipping activity in Egypt, please do not hesitate to contact our team.
