Suez Canal Crisis: Ever Given finally refloated

From Morning Report, 7:46 am on 30 March 2021

The giant ship blocking the Suez Canal for nearly a week has been refloated and is now making it's way out of the canal.

The bow of the Ever Given was wrenched from the sandy bank of the canal earlier this morning where it was wedged since last Tuesday.

Hundreds of ships have been waiting to go through the canal which is one of the world's busiest trade routes.

CNBC International Correspondent Dan Murphy spoke to Morning Report from the canal.
