After months of blockade of the port

(ANSA) - BELGRADE, MAY 30 - After a two-month blockade, the first cargo ship will depart Mariupol today, the Russian news agency Interfax said, quoting the Rossiya-24 television channel.

"The first freight ship in two months will depart today. The authorities are in trouble, since grenade launcher fire from fleeing nationalist battalions has nearly burnt the infrastructure to the ground," a channel correspondent claimed.

"For the time being, the key priority is to restore all port infrastructure," he continued. (ANSA).
