Egypt's Suez Canal Authority has said a record 68 vessels and container ships carrying 3.8 million tonnes passed through the Suez Canal waterway on Saturday, Ahram has reported. The biggest container ships that passed through the waterway on Saturday were the Dutch 'Edith Maersk' carrying 171,000 tonnes in Cargo, and the oil tanker 'Blue Topaz' transporting 164,000 tonnes, said the head of the authority, Mohab Mamish. "This is the highest number of ships and the biggest cargo to pass in one day since the beginning of the year," he said. The waterway recorded $405m in revenues in January 2013, a 9.1% decline from January 2012, mainly due to the current state of political unrest in the country.
