🫠 The Black Sea has become the deadliest maritime route in the world: in one year more than 570 ships were hit, - Financial Times
At least 40 merchant seafarers have died — more than in the Strait of Hormuz, where 24 deaths have been confirmed.
Just from July to September about 387 ships were attacked — more than four strikes a day. According to the firm Ambrey, over the past 45 days about 90% of attacks on shipping were carried out by Russia.
Strikes have already affected waters off Romania and Bulgaria. Ship insurance costs have risen to 15% of their value, and Ukrainian maritime agricultural exports in August fell to 1,4 million tons — roughly 75% below prewar levels.
If the situation does not change, Ukrainian farmers may not have enough money for spring sowing, warn representatives of the agricultural business.
