Much easier said than done. There's a reason shipping containers only go to specialized ports with the right crane systems to remove the containers. Even in a dock with these cranes it still takes days to remove all of the containers.
Now, just imagine how hard this is going to be without those cranes, on a ship that's not even docked... in the middle of nowhere! How are they going to move hundreds of trucks in the middle of the desert? Even if they park another ship next to it for all of this its still hard to do. This can't be done quietly. Something big may happen .
Actually, it's very easy. They already have everything they need to get it done. Simply yank the above-decks containers into the water with a cable and tug, dozens at a time. Containers are insured. They are lost at sea all the time. If you don't want to clean that up, tell people it's all free.
Considering who or what might be in those containers, that could be tantamount to murder.
Also, not a good idea to dump cargo containers by the dozen into the world's busiest canal. You'll end up making the situation worse. You'll need divers and helicopters to cart that shit out of there, as it would likely tear up the bottom of other passing cargo ships. The canal is deep, but I don't think its that deep.

99.9 percent of the containers will float. A small boat could easily move one.
