Police in British Columbia say truck traffic to a major Metro Vancouver container port terminal has been restored after being disrupted by pro-Palestinian protesters for hours.

Delta Police say on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, that inbound and outbound traffic at GCT Deltaport is running again, although truck volumes may remain heavy until a backlog is cleared.
