Cargo vessel sets off from Ukrainian Black Sea port
A cargo vessel set off from a Ukrainian Black Sea port on Tuesday after loading but remained close to the port, an industry source said, without giving any further details.
The vessel was the latest to set off from a Ukrainian Black Sea port since Kyiv established a temporary “humanitarian corridor” hugging the coastline following Russia’s decision to quit a deal that had allowed safe Ukrainian exports.
Two bulk carriers left the port of Chornomorsk last week via the humanitarian corridor.
Deputy Prime Minister Oleksandr Kubrakov said last week that three cargo ships were heading towards Ukrainian Black Sea ports for further food and steel exports.
He identified them as the bulk carriers Azara, Ying Hao 01 and Eneida, and said they were due to load 127,000 metric tons of agricultural products and iron ore for China, Egypt and Spain.
