This bulk carrier, which has a deadweight of 78,800 tons, entered the Pivdennyi port to load cargo last Saturday. According to the MarineTraffic global ship tracking intelligence provider, the vessel is now heading to Istanbul.

These two bulk carriers are the 18th and 19th vessels (including five that had been stuck in Ukrainian ports since February 2022) to leave the ports of Greater Odesa after Ukraine announced the new temporary corridor in the Black Sea without the participation of Russia, Turkey, and the United Nations.
