Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Friday visited the Odesa region to observe the loading of grain as exports resume for the first time since the start of the Russian invasion.
Zelenskyy observed a Turkish ship loaded with grain, reports AP.
"The first vessel, the first ship is being loaded since the beginning of the war," Zelenskyy said.
He said the export of grain will begin with the departure of several ships that were already loaded but could not depart the Ukrainian ports.
