On 29 May 2025, a deep depression over the Northwest Bay made landfall between Sagar Island (India) and Khepupara (Bangladesh) and has since been gradually weakening. However, adverse weather conditions continue to affect operations across coastal regions.

Kuehne+Nagel reports that gusty winds of up to 60 km/h and moderate sea conditions are impacting maritime ports, the North Bay, and surrounding coastal areas. Local Cautionary Signal No. 3 remains in effect at Chittagong, Cox’s Bazar, Mongla, and Payra ports.

Furthermore, heavy rainfall and flooding have caused waterlogging in Chattogram City and port areas, disrupting container yard operations.

Cargo handling, shipment receiving, and loading/unloading activities are experiencing significant delays.

Labour availability is limited, and port and transport movement is significantly restricted. As a result of these ongoing disruptions, planned schedules may be subject to change.

For further details, refer to our Kuhne+Nagel advisory.
