Egypt's first female ship's captain says she was wrongly blamed for Suez blockage
Marwa Elselehdar was hundreds of miles away when the giant Ever Given container ship got stuck in the Suez Canal, yet online rumors immediately spread, saying she was responsible.
“I was shocked. I felt that I might be targeted maybe because I’m a successful female in this field or because I’m Egyptian, but I’m not sure,” Elselehdar, who is Egypt’s first female ship’s captain, told BBC.
