This is the first container ship belonging to MSC to call at a Ukrainian port since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion.

Background:

  • Earlier, MSC cancelled the first call at the port of Odesa since the start of the full-scale invasion.
  • Another global container shipping giant, Maersk Group, is launching the first container service to the ports of Greater Odesa (Chornomorsk, Pivdennyi and Odesa – ed.) since the start of the full-scale war.
