Ukraine detained the Cameroon-flagged cargo ship Usko Mfu on the Danube River. The Navy accused the ship of illegally crossing the Ukrainian border and transporting cargo to occupied Sevastopol.

The corresponding information was confirmed by the representative of the Navy, Dmitry Pletenchuk. He added that it will not be possible to neglect the legal demands of Ukraine in the Black Sea.

Detention of a foreign ship

Thus, structures subordinate to the Ukrainian Navy detained a cargo ship that, contrary to Ukrainian and international law, entered Ukrainian ports occupied by Russia for commercial purposes. They were detained in compliance with all relevant procedures,” Pletenchuk wrote. In the port of Reni, a ship approached him and forced him to anchor. The ship was searched and prohibited from leaving the port. The ship was transporting barley and heading to the Greek city of Souda.

By the way, Pletenchuk recently said that 25 thousand square kilometers of the Black Sea have become a “gray zone”, since no one can fully gain a foothold there. In particular, Ukrainian ships fall into the strike zone of Russian aviation. That is why more than 6 thousand civilian Ukrainian ships have been blocked since the beginning of the full-scale invasion.
