The situation in the country is dire! Urgent notice from the shipping company: stop booking, close the import and export activities of the office

The current world situation is still unstable, and an armed conflict broke out in another African country.

Since April 15 local time, large-scale armed conflicts have continued to break out between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces. Since the conflict broke out, 256 civilians have been killed and another 1,454 injured. Thirteen hospitals across Sudan were bombed, and staff from 19 hospitals were forced to evacuate. The Civil Aviation Authority of Sudan announced on the 22nd that the closure of the country's airspace will be extended to April 30. According to the latest reports, about 20,000 Sudanese have fled to neighboring Chad after both parties to the Sudanese conflict refused to negotiate.

Considering the deteriorating domestic situation in Sudan and the unpredictable schedule delay, the shipping company OOCL issued a notice to stop accepting all new bookings for Sudan.

Maersk also issued a notice to customers stating that in view of the current situation in Sudan, Maersk's offices in Khartoum and Port Sudan will be closed until further notice.

Considering the safety and well-being of local employees, Maersk launched a crisis response plan, and all employees took refuge in their residences. The current situation has disrupted the normal operations of the business and Maersk is closely monitoring the situation so that operations can resume better and safely. At the same time, plans are being made to provide customers with the best solutions for managing supply chains.
