Since the agreement between Ukraine, Turkey, Russia and the UN on the transportation of grain from Ukraine entered into force, 149 vessels with 3.4 million tonnes of agricultural products have left Ukrainian seaports.

According to Ukrinform, the press service of the Infrastructure Ministry of Ukraine said this in a Facebook post.

"A total of 149 ships with agricultural products left Ukrainian ports for countries in Asia, Europe and Africa," the report reads.

It is noted that on September 16, four vessels carrying 69,600 tonnes of agricultural products left the ports of Odesa, Chornomorsk and Pivdennyi.
