Bulk carrier SKY GATE with 25 thousand tons of Ukrainian humanitarian wheat for Nigeria is moving through the grain corridor
This is the first vessel this year to carry humanitarian wheat chartered by the UN World Food Program under the #GrainFromUkraine program, according to the Ministry of Recovery of Ukraine.
The #GrainFromUkraine program was initiated by Volodymyr Zelenskyy in November 2022 and has been implemented jointly with the UN World Food Program and donor countries since November 2022. Its goal is to provide access to Ukrainian food to countries suffering from hunger. In the first year, 34 countries and international organizations joined the program. 170 thousand tons of humanitarian wheat were shipped to Ethiopia, Yemen, Somalia, Kenya, and Afghanistan.
At the second international Grain From Ukraine summit held in Kyiv on November 25, 2023, more than $100 million was raised to continue the humanitarian program for the countries most affected by food shortages.
