The massive container ship that has been stuck in the Suez Canal for nearly a week was finally free Monday, an official said.

The bow of the Ever Given container vessel had been fully dislodged Monday afternoon, a Suez Canal Authority spokesperson told CNN.

The Ever Given container ship’s blocking of the Suez Canal has caused crippling international trade delays and caused multi-million-dollar losses.

Ship-tracking service VesselFinder also said the skyscraper-sized ship returned to its route.

โ€œEver Given container vessel returns to normal course after being freed from blockage in Suez Canal,โ€ the tracking site said.

The colossal vessel had become wedged in the crucial global shipping waterway Tuesday.Initial reports blamed high winds and a sandstorm that affected visibility, but Egyptian officials later said that human error may have contributed to the maritime crisis. (NYPost)
