This is the first footage showing the 13,092 TEU Maersk Elba arriving at the Carmel Terminal this morning (February 2, 2017) in Haifa Port — breaking the record for Israel’s largest ship to ever dock in the country.

Haifa Port has labeled it as an 'Isra-max' vessel in the parlance of ‘Panamax’ ships as it has inducted the port into an exclusive club handling high-capacity 14,000 TEU mega ships.
