Millions of tonnes of grain have been stuck in Ukraine due to Russian blockades, leading to shortages and higher food prices in other countries.

But last week the first ship left Ukraine’s ports since February.

The latest ships to set sail are bound for Turkey where they will be inspected as part of a deal reached with Russia and the United Nations.

They left yesterday from the ports of Odesa and Chornomorsk, and will all travel through the Bosphorus strait.

After the inspections, two are then scheduled to dock in Turkey, while the others are headed for Italy and China.
