DISPUTED GRAIN CARGO FROM TURKEY RETURNS TO RUSSIA

  • 07/07/2022

According to a Turkish source, a disputed cargo ship carrying allegedly stolen grain from Ukraine has returned to Russian territorial waters, bringing vehement denunciation from Kiev.

Zhibek Zholy was visible on the marinetraffic.com website travelling at least 20 kilometres (12 miles) away from the Turkish Black Sea port of Karasu when it appeared to turn off its transponder and vanish from view. 

A Turkish source said the ship reached Russian territorial waters but had not yet docked in port.

Kyiv alleges that the 7,000-tonne vessel had set off from Ukraine's Kremlin-occupied port of Berdyansk after picking up confiscated wheat.
