Seven ships travelled from the Bosphorus North Anchorage to Odesa area ports on 05Nov and all were inspected by joint teams. These ships are all at the Odesa anchorage currently.
A further two outbound ships were inspected by joint teams on 04Nov and two on 06Nov meaning those ships are able to proceed to their destination.
No ships transited out of the humanitarian corridor on 06Nov. #myprecious
A further 15 ships were inspected by joint teams on 05Nov and 06 Nov and 13 of those ships are in the humanitarian corridor headed for Odesa area ports. Six more ships have their inbound inspection complete and are waiting to transit the corridor.
Why are they waiting? Weather in the Black Sea area is not optimal to say the least and in non-war times it would be a concern but it’s even more pertinent now.
The last big storm broke a mine free and it appears this one has as well as there are reports of an anchored mine washing up on an Odesa beach. t.me/Bratchuk_Serge…
With only 13 days left in the Initiative timelines are getting tight. The JCC reports “currently 88 vessels waiting to move into Ukrainian ports plus 18 loaded vessels waiting for inspection in Turkish territorial waters.”

One ship was assessed as delivered today, we have 19 ships left to deliver. A quick count shows that at least 14 ships sailed into Odesa Area ports in the past 24 hours.
The Rundown
Ukraine has announced a War Risk compensation mechanism for businesses today. In the shipping industry, Ukraine’s War Risk Insurance did not replace private insurance offerings but instead made pricing more competitive which encouraged trade more broadly. Similarly this insurance is expected to allow businesses to move forward with new funding and investment. kmu.gov.ua/en/news/uriad-…
That’s right, we finally hit a day with zero deliveries. More of these will happen as we only have 20 ships left to deliver…you may even see us take a day or two off here and there. Regardless, traffic continues consistently in and out of Odesa.
The Rundown
Last night’s large Russian missile and shahed attack hit the southern Odesa port of Izmail, destroying both port and energy infrastructure. blackseanews.net/read/236613
Russia has been strategically targeting power, rail and port infrastructure over recent weeks. Disrupting logistics is the main avenue to shut down Ukraine’s economy and create challenges for the armed forces. t.me/OleksiiKuleba/…
Thankfully a rail strike like this should be fixable in fairly short order. Currently having enough manpower to deal with the widespread damage is the biggest issue.
From 14-16Dec2024 , 17 ships likely sailed inbound to Odesa area ports and 15 ships likely sailed outbound for a total of 32 ships in the Ukrainian Humanitarian Corridor. *These numbers may change over time.
15 ships were assessed as delivered today, including three to Türkiye and one to Iraq.
We tracked 237 ships today.
The weather isn’t great across the Black Sea region but ships are making the most of the windows they have. There really isn’t much to report from Odesa because ships keep sailing in and out consistently other than weather effects.
Last night’s strikes in Crimea are more important than you may think and they make it clear that Ukraine has a plan that they have been working on for years.
They started with the truck attack which knocked out sections of road and rail for months.
Ukraine has had a long term strike campaign with both missiles and USV’s aimed at taking out the Ropucha class landing ships that were handling many of the ferrying activities.
