This is stated in a UN statement, RBC-Ukraine reports citing The Guardian.

The UN reminded that the "grain deal" provides for exports through the Black Sea from three ports. However, since April 29, no ship has been allowed to enter the Pivdennyi port near Odesa.

"The United Nations and Turkey are working closely with other parties to restore full operations... and to remove all obstacles that impede operations and limit the scope of the initiative," the statement said.
