The moves to evade detection come as shipping lines are also being advised to wait further offshore with rocket attacks reported at the ports of Ashdod and Eilat in Israel. Israel has closed the Port of Ashkelon, the country's biggest oil-importing port, because of rocket attacks. "This suggests that container lines are avoiding the Port of Ashdod, and potentially relying more on the Port of Haifa instead," Woitzik said. The ports of Ashdod and Haifa are the key ports for food imports.
