The bulk carrier Primus, flying the flag of Liberia, has departed from the port of Odessa and is heading towards the Bulgarian port of Varna.
This information is indicated by the data from the MarineTraffic resource.
As reported by Andriy Klymenko, the head of the Black Sea Strategic Studies Institute project, this vessel under the flag of Greece arrived in Odessa on February 20, 2022, and changed ownership while staying in the Ukrainian port.
Recall:
- The first vessel to use the Ukrainian Black Sea corridor after Russia's withdrawal from the "grain initiative" arrived in Istanbul, Turkey.
- Ukraine opened registration for commercial vessels and their owners for passage through temporary routes to/from the ports of Odessa.
- Ukraine announced temporary corridors in the Black Sea for commercial vessels heading to and from Ukrainian ports.
- The last vessel with Ukrainian foodstuffs left the port of Odessa on July 16.
- Russia unilaterally withdrew from the Black Sea "grain initiative" on July 17 and subsequently launched multiple attacks on port grain infrastructure.
