Blocked ships in Ukrainian ports during the war: the Pivdenny commercial sea port

The

Monitoring Group of BlackSeaNews
and the Black Sea Institute of Strategic Studies

The Monitoring Group of the Black Sea Institute of Strategic Studies and BlackSeaNews continues a series of articles about the fate of the ships that were in Ukrainian ports on 24 February 2022, when Russia launched a full-scale invasion of many regions of Ukraine.

As of 24 February 2022, in the Pivdennyi commercial sea port (Yuzhne city, the Odesa region, Ukraine, international port code UA YUZ), in addition to port fleet vessels permanently based in the port, there were 9 merchant ships (See Table 1). All of them have remained in port under blockade.

Most of the ships had arrived for loading in the port just 1-2 days before the full-blown war started on 24 February 2022.

The breakdown of the vessels by country of shipowner registration:

  • Greece – 5

  • Japan – 3

  • Malta – 1

Thus, out of the 9 ships blocked in the Pivdennyi sea port, 6 belong to shipowners from EU countries, 3 - to shipowners from Japan.
