According to the report, a total of 16 freighters have already left Ukraine’s Black Sea ports since the agreement brokered by Turkey and the United Nations to relax the Russian naval blockade in mid-July. The agreement aims to prevent global grain and food shortages. Before the Russian attack, Ukraine was one of the world’s biggest grain exporters.
