Is the Ever Given on the move?

The Ever Given container ship is on the move, apparently ending a six-day jam that clogged the Suez Canal. ...

Is the Ever Given Still stuck?

On 29 March, Ever Given was partially re-floated and moved by about 80 percent in the correct direction, although the bow remained stuck until the ship was finally freed by Egyptian, Dutch, and Italian tugs at 15:05 EGY (13:05 UTC) and started moving, under tow, towards the Great Bitter Lake, for technical inspection.
