Kyiv: Ukraine arrests four ships exporting stolen grain

Ukraine's Prosecutor-General's Office has stated that Ukraine arrested four ships that exported stolen grain.

 "The vessels entered the closed ports and terminals of the Crimean peninsula, taking part in the illegal scheme of transportation of Ukrainian grain by the occupiers to third countries, thus they were an instrument of committing crimes," RBC-Ukraine reports with reference to the Ukrainian Prosecutor-General's Office.

It has been established that the Russian-flagged vessels "Matros Pozinich," "Mikhail Nenashev," and "Matros Koshka," as well as the Syrian vessel, make systematic illegal calls to the closed Sevastopol commercial seaport.

An investigation is being conducted on the facts of violations of the order of entry into and exit from the temporarily occupied territory under the procedural leadership of the Prosecutor's Office (Part 2 of Article 332-1 of the Ukrainian Criminal Code).
