Bulk carrier with stolen Ukrainian grain heads to Turkey

Turkey will again accept grain stolen from the occupied territory of Ukraine.

This was reported by Kateryna Yaresko, a journalist for the SeaKrime project of the Peacemaker Center.

According to her, the bulk carrier Grumant (IMO:9385879) under the Russian flag does not hide in AIS. The vessel leaves from occupied Feodosia. The port of destination is Turkish Iskenderun.

In particular, on February 19, before leaving the Feodosia port, the loaded violator was photographed. You can compare the draft of the vessel with the photo from February 7, which was taken shortly after arriving in occupied Feodosia.

“All this time, Grumant was standing near the pier, which is visible on satellite images. So, Turkey is again accepting grain stolen from the occupied territory of Ukraine,” Yaresko noted.
