The first vessel that entered Ukrainian ports to load agricultural products since the beginning of Russian full-scale invasion, left the port of Chornomorsk on Saturday morning, the Ministry of Infrastructure of Ukraine reports.

"This morning, the bulk carrier FULMAR S [under the flag of Barbados] set sail for Turkey. The ship joined the caravan with the bulk carrier THOE. The two vessels carry 14,500 tonnes of agricultural products," a Facebook post said.

During the implementation of the Initiative for the Safe Transportation of Agricultural Products, 16 ships have already departed from Ukrainian ports, carrying 450,000 tonnes of agricultural products.
