The Skadovsk port has received its first vessel for loading grain since November 2017. The vessel, carrying 800 tons of sunflower, is en route to Georgia. In a related development, a Greek vessel with 22 sailors was quarantined after 11 crew members tested positive for COVID-19. The ship was kept under round-the-clock security to prevent unauthorized access or crew members from disembarking. Four private investors are set to participate in a tender for the right to lease the property of the state stevedore, Skadovsk Sea Trade Port.
