The bulk carrier Fulmar S has entered the Port of Chornomorsk and is ready for loading. This is the first vessel to enter a Ukrainian port since the full-scale Russian invasion.

This was reported by Ukraine’s Ministry of Infrastructure on Telegram.

"The ship entered in the course of the implementation of the Initiative on the Safe Transportation of Grain and Food Products from Ukrainian Ports," the ministry said.

Reminder:

On Sunday, 7 August, the second convoy of ships carrying Ukrainian food left the ports of Odesa and Chornomorsk – 3 vessels from Chornomorsk and one from Odesa.

On Saturday evening, the bulk carrier Fulmar S arrived for loading - the first ship to do so since the start of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine on 24 February.

On 2 August the Turkish Ministry of Defence confirmed the arrival of the grain carrier Razoni loaded with Ukrainian grain - the first ship to set off under the "grain agreement" between Ukraine, Turkey, the UN and Russia. On 3 August the inspection of the first vessel loaded with Ukrainian grain was completed in Turkey. The ship passed through the Bosphorus and headed for the Sea of Marmara.
