Ukraine says 16 ships with grain ready to leave Odesa port

Deputy Head of the Ukraine President’s Office Kyrylo Tymoshenko has said that 16 ships with Ukrainian grain are waiting to be sent from the ports of the Odesa region.

These vessels have been blocked in Ukrainian ports since late February, after a full-scale Russian invasion, RBC-Ukraine reports citing the statement of Tymoshenko.

He said that Ukraine continues to receive applications for the arrival of new ships to load agricultural products.
“In the near future we plan to reach full capacity for transshipment of agricultural products,” Tymoshenko said.
