Restoration of looted grain flow from the occupied Crimea

The transportation of grain from the occupied Crimea slowed down after the detention of ZHIBEK ZHOLY (IMO: 9598880) in Turkey.



The ships Fedor, Matros Koshka, St. Konstantin, and Matros Pozynych have loaded in occupied Sevastopol and have been standing idle off the coast of Crimea. Sormovsky-48 and Nadezhda loaded in occupied Kerch. Starting from July 6, all ships with looted grain started their movement.

Маtros Kоshka (IMO: 9550137, MMSI: 273297880, Call Sign: UBWW4, Flag: Russia [RU]) was loaded at the AVLITA grain terminal on June 24-28.

The volume of stolen grainin June, 183,000 tonnes of grain were taken from the grain terminal in occupied Sevastopol

Monitoring of the Matros Koshka track on the Маrine Тraffic shows that after entering the Black Sea on June 12, 2022, the ship turned off AIS. A photo from occupied Sevastopol proves that with the transponder turned off, the ship headed for the entrance to the Sevastopol Bay.

The Matros Koshka ship was waiting for loading until June 24, and was at anchor near the port of Sevastopol from June 28 to July 6. The ship was loaded with a consignment of wheat of about 27 thousand tonnes. The ship indicates the port of destination as Beirut (Lebanon), but according to our data it should deliver grain to Syria.
