Adani Ports: Haifa Port operational amid conflict

10 Oct 2023 CW Team

Adani Ports has confirmed that its Haifa Port in Israel remains operational and unaffected by the ongoing conflict between Israel and the militant group Hamas. The company has taken measures to ensure the safety of its employees and has a business continuity plan in place to respond effectively to any situation.

While Haifa Port contributes 3% of Adani Ports' total cargo volume, it's situated in northern Israel, away from the current conflict in the southern region. Ship operations to the port have even increased, with some being diverted from other ports like Ashdod.

The Israel-Palestine conflict has a long history, and experts suggest that Haifa's trade routes with Europe remain secure for the time being. However, the situation's evolution in the future is uncertain and could impact other areas if the conflict escalates further.
