Chaos in der Versorgungskette bei Wiederaufnahme des Schiffsverkehrs in Shanghai vorhergesagt. Nach Expertenschätzungen haben die Unterbrechungen der Lieferkette allein im April zu nicht verschifften 260.000 TEU von Shanghai aus geführt.

Die Umleitung von Schiffen nahm ab Mitte April rapide zu, was dazu führte, dass immer mehr Exportfracht nicht verschifft wurde, und nun wird erwartet, dass...

The South African National Defence Force (SANDF) can significantly rejuvenate the coastal defence forces of the South African Navy (SAN) with the commissioning of its first MMIPV (Multi-Mission Inshore Patrol Vessel) named "King Sekhukhune I". Only three of the new "Warrior" class vessels with the distinctive sea-axe bow, built according to the STAN-Patrol 6211 Damen design at the Dutch branch in Cape Town, are to be built in the end, after six boats were initially calculated as the capability requirement. Day-to-day operations will now show how well the bow design is adapted to the wind and sea conditions at the Cape and around the southern tip of the African continent - and whether three boats will be able to cope with...
