In brief
Maersk has halted its feeder service via Ukraine’s Chornomorsk Fishing Port due to intensified Russian attacks on Black Sea port infrastructure, redirecting shipments to Romania’s Constanta and offering free cancellations or change-of-destination options for Ukrainian-bound cargo. The move, echoed by other carriers and tied to broader disruption of Ukraine’s maritime exports, underscores the ongoing impact of the conflict on grain and other exports from the region.

Ukraine seeks UN session on Black Sea attacks
Ukraine has urged the UN Security Council to convene on July 27 to address Russian attacks on civilian cargo ships in the Black Sea that have halted the maritime corridor and threatened global food security. Kyiv accuses Moscow of terrorizing shipping and disrupting grain exports, while Russia says it is striking military targets and port infrastructure; Zelensky remains engaged in discussions with US envoys for a dignified peace as Russia also pursues prisoner recruitment and other destabilizing moves.
