The Ukrainian Navy has announced temporary corridors for commercial vessels travelling to or from Ukrainian ports, as stated on the AFU Navy's Facebook page.
The routes will primarily be used to allow the departure of civilian vessels that have been in the Ukrainian Black Sea ports of Chornomorsk, Odesa, and Pivdennyi since the beginning of russia's full-scale invasion. Vessels whose owners or captains officially confirm their readiness to sail under conditions of military threat and mine danger will be permitted to use the routes.
Background. Mind previously reported that Poland was proposing to build ports on the Baltic Sea specifically for transporting Ukrainian grain. The Minister of Agriculture has called on the European Union to provide funding for such a project.
