In response to the turmoil that has engulfed Egypt in recent days, Danish shipping group AP Moller-Maersk has suspended its port terminal operations in the country and closed its shipping offices.
'Today, there are no terminal operations in Egypt and Maersk Line, Safmarine and Damco offices are closed,' the group said in a statement yesterday.
The group's activities in Egypt include the Suez Canal Container Terminal at Port Said, the Egyptian Drilling Company, and shipping and logistics companies Maersk Line, Safmarine and Damco.
