More than 100 vessels are awaiting inspection in Istanbul
Currently, more than 100 vessels heading to and from Ukrainian ports are awaiting inspection by the Joint Coordination Center in Istanbul.
Almost 80 ships are awaiting inspection in the queue to Ukrainian ports, more than 30 are waiting for permission to leave the Black Sea and continue their voyages. This is evidenced by MarineTraffic data.
Yesterday, November 22, the spokesman of Odesa Regional Military Administration Serhiy Bratchuk stated that 76 ships are waiting for permission to enter the ports of Great Odessa for cargo. Another 33 loaded grain carriers were being prepared for inspection in Turkish territorial waters to proceed to their destinations. So, as you can see, the number of vessels in both queues does not change, the speed of work of inspection teams remains at the same level as before.
