The Russians have launched a cargo sorting and transshipment station and restored large railway scales in Mariupol.

Mayor of Mariupol Vadym Boichenko announced this in a statement, the CFTS portal reports.

"This will allow them to increase the pace and transfer additional resources via the seaport," he said.

In addition, according to the mayor of Mariupol, dual-purpose cargoes are now being loaded onto maritime bulk carriers at the port.

As the CFTS portal reported earlier, Russians have exported over 180,000 tons of stolen Ukrainian grain through the port of Mariupol in the past year.
