Russia is going to expand the capacity of the temporarily occupied Mariupol and Berdyansk seaports. Thus, the Russians plan to increase the export of agricultural products and other goods.
In particular, we are talking about scrap metal – not yet completely stolen equipment from captured Ukrainian metallurgical enterprises. This was reported by the Center of National Resistance.
It is noted that during the 2024 harvest, the Russians have already harvested more than 1.3 million tons of grain and leguminous crops in the temporarily occupied part of the Kherson region.
The Russians plan to send most of the collected goods outside the captured Ukrainian regions.
From the beginning of the year to July, the Russians have already organized more than 15 such “flights” from the port of Mariupol, taking Ukrainian grain to Russia.
“We urge you to provide information about those involved in the crimes of the Kremlin in order to bring them to justice for their actions,” the Center of National Resistance emphasized.
A foreign cargo ship and its captain, who worked for Russia, were detained in the waters of the Black Sea in Odesa. The ship flew under the flag of one of the countries of Central Africa, but its crew was carrying out orders from the Russians to export Ukrainian grain from the temporarily occupied Crimea.
