Two cargo ships have arrived in one of Ukraines ports Saturday, using a temporary Black Sea corridor established by the government.

Buton July 17, with Kremlin officials arguing their demands for the facilitation of Russian food and fertilizer shipments had not been met.
The interim corridor in the Black Sea, which Kyiv has asked the International Maritime Organization to ratify, was opened on Aug. 10 as United States and Ukrainian officials warned of possible Russian attacks on civilian vessels.
