I am only saying that if the canal was still UK property we could probably at least rely on the courts to impartially decide who is at fault. People don't realize things don't operate the same way in 3rd world countries as they do in the West.

Now the fault lies at where ever Egypt says it does. The only recourse is to hope they are lenient enough to not spook other maritime freight operators.

I doubt Suez Canal disputes are adjudicated by some local court out in the the desert. It's either some special tribunal with at least some internationally recognised expertise. Or, most likely, a binding arbitration committee at Loyd's of London.
