100th ship carrying food passes through Black Sea corridor - U.S. ambassador
That’s according to Bridget Brink, the US Ambassador to Ukraine, who highlighted the fact on X (formerly Twitter), Ukrinform reports.
"Today the 100th ship departed the Black Sea humanitarian corridor - an export lifeline for Ukraine that has delivered 3.7 million tons of food & goods to the world," Brink wrote.
As reported earlier, in August 2023, Ukraine launched temporary corridors for the merchant vessels to navigate from Ukrainian ports. At the same time, the Russian Federation continues to attack Ukraine’s port infrastructure, launching drones and missiles to destroy it. On November 9, Oleksandr Kubrakov, the Deputy Prime Minister for Reconstruction and Minister for Development of Communities, Territories and Infrastructure, stated that the vessels continue to navigate to and from the ports of Odesa region along the Ukrainian corridor.
