The invaders have established regular flights with stolen grain to Syria


Damas Wave has sent grain from occupied Feodosia to Syria for the third time this summer.

The Damas Wave vessel (formerly Golden Yara, IMO: 8915299) makes regular voyages between occupied Feodosia and the Syrian port of Tartus, transporting grain exported from the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. This was reported by Kateryna Yaresko, a journalist for the SeaKrime project of the Myrotvorets Center.

This is the third recorded voyage:

• On July 23, 2025, the vessel arrived from Tartus to Feodosia loaded,

• On July 31, it unloaded and began to receive new cargo,

• On August 10 and 12, it continued loading in the Feodosia port,

• On August 15–16, the vessel left Crimea, indicating the Syrian Tartus as its destination.

Thus, bilateral trade relations have been restored between the Russian invaders and Syria, within the framework of which Russia sells grain looted from Ukrainian territories on the international market.

Earlier, as USM wrote, two vessels were spotted in Tartus that had made voyages from Sevastopol, despite sanctions.
