France 24 reports this:
The Palau-flagged bulk carrier Aroyat, loaded with 17.6 thousand tons of wheat, left the Ukrainian port of Chernomorsk on September 22, heading to Egypt.
According to online services Marine Traffic and Vessel Finder, Aroyat was at the southern exit of the Bosphorus Strait at 0300 GMT on September 23. Next, the ship must head to the Dardanelles Strait to reach the Mediterranean Sea.
The first ship, loaded with 3 thousand tons of wheat, Resilient Africa, also sailing under the flag of Palau, left Chernomorsk on September 19 without incident and reached Istanbul on September 21.
Thus, Ukraine is successfully testing a new sea route that avoids international waters and goes through waters controlled by NATO members Bulgaria and Romania, after Russia withdrew from the UN-backed grain agreement.
