Russian military leaders have pledged to ensure the safety of grain exports from Ukrainian ports.
A representative of the Russian Defence Ministry, Mikhail Mizintsev, said Russia was taking all necessary measures to ensure the safety of civilians' shipments as well as prevent provocations along the crossing route.
The first grain freighter since the start of the war in February had earlier left a Ukrainian port on Monday.

Mizintsev said ships can leave the ports of Odessa, Chornomorsk and Yuzhny (Pivdennyi) daily from 8 am to 7pm (0500-1600 GMT), adding that Russia had provided a corridor 139 kilometres long and three kilometres wide.
However, there was still a danger of Ukrainian mines breaking loose from their moorings along the coast and drifting, he warned.
