Ukraine ports ‘partially unblocked’ by Russia, Kiev says

Moscow (CNN)Russia has partially unblocked Ukraine’s ports on the Azov Sea, allowing ship traffic though the Kerch Strait, Ukrainian Minister of Infrastructure Volodymyr Omelyan said Tuesday.

In a statement posted on the ministry website, Omelyan said Russia had lifted some restrictions on movement to and from the Azov Sea ports of Berdyansk and Mariupol.
“Vessels are making their way to the entrance and exit through the Kerch Strait toward the Ukrainian ports,” he said. “The vessels are stopped by the Russian side, they are still inspecting, but traffic has been partly restored.”
