The bulk carrier FULMAR S has called at the Chornomorsk port in Odesa Region and is ready for loading, the Infrastructure Ministry has said.

"This is the first vessel to call at a Ukrainian port since the full-scale russian invasion. The vessel arrived as part of the Initiative for the safe transport of grain and food products from Ukrainian ports," it said.

The Barbados-flagged bulker left the Turkish port of Bandirm in the Sea of Marmara more than 10 days ago. The vessel was anchored off the Turkish port of Pendik until 2 August, and then anchored off the Bosphorus Strait in the Black Sea until 5 August, from where it set sail for the port of Chornomorsk.
