Chattogram Port resumes operations as Sitrang weakens

Ships, which had gone into the open sea during the cyclone, started returning to the jetty around 9:00 am on Tuesday, said a port official.

No damage was caused to the port due the cyclone, he added.

The port was evacuated as a precautionary measure before the cyclone hit the coast early on Tuesday.

On Monday morning the port took its own level-type precautionary measures following the issuance of cautionary signal number seven by the Meteorological Department.

The loading-unloading of goods from the mother vessels at the outer anchorage and jetties of the port were also halted.
