Key points
- The cargo ship Thor B resumed operational activities on Friday, returning to the weekly schedule for the 2026-2027 biennium after approximately one month of mandatory technical inspections and maintenance.
- The return of Thor B enables the complete discharge of accumulated cargo and the transport of concentrated livestock, while the island of Corvo was supplied via alternative air and sea measures during the ship's absence.
