Ukraine has called on the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to closely monitor the situation at Odesa’s Black Sea ports following escalating Russian attacks. The appeal highlights growing concerns over the safety of maritime operations in the region, as critical infrastructure and grain shipments have been repeatedly targeted. Ukraine’s request aims to ensure global shipping routes remain secure and prevent further disruption to international trade. The IMO’s involvement is seen as crucial in maintaining maritime security and protecting vital supply chains amid ongoing conflict.
