What happens
In response to hostile forces closing in on the Suez Canal, and risking losing the vital commerce artery to the enemy, the nation has instead chosen to blown the canal to ensure its use is denied to them. Through a combination of blockships, demolitions, and mining, the destruction is quite complete, and will likely take months of extensive industrial effort to repair.
