Minister of Community and Territorial Development Oleksii Kuleba provided this information.

Nearly 4600 vessels have departed from the ports of «Greater Odesa». Exported goods were sent to 53 countries around the world, covering regions in Asia, Africa, Europe, and Latin America.

Despite ongoing attacks on port infrastructure, the maritime corridor continues to operate, remaining a crucial component of global food security by ensuring stable grain supplies to areas with limited access to other routes.

«Last year alone, air raid alerts were declared over 800 times in the Odesa region. The total time port workers had to interrupt operations and seek shelter exceeded 32 days. Despite these conditions, the logistical process was not halted and ensured stable exports,» emphasized Oleksii Kuleba.
