This was announced by Foreign Minister Andriy Sibiga.
The grain was unloaded, even though five days ago Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko sent a request to the Egyptian Ministry of Justice setting out the grounds for the vessel’s arrest. It belongs to the sanctioned company ‘Agro-Fregat’ and was illegally transporting stolen wheat via Crimea.
This is already the fourth instance since early April in which russia has unloaded stolen Ukrainian grain at Egyptian ports.
