Panama Canal to cut daily ship traffic as drought worsens from El Nino

The Panama Canal will limit daily vessel traffic from September 3, the Pnama Canal Authority said Thursday, as a severe drought fuelled by El Nino depletes water supplies needed to operate the vital trade route. The restrictions will reduce crossings from 36 ships a day to 34, and then to 32 from September 15.
