The first Ukrainian grain shipment since the start of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine left the port of Odesa on August 1, 2022, under a deal aimed at relieving a global food crisis. The blockage of deliveries from Russia and Ukraine – two of the world’s biggest grain exporters – has contributed to soaring food prices, hitting the world’s poorest nations especially hard.
