Two vessels involved in the Ukrainian grain export trade have suffered delays in Turkey’s Bosphorus strait.
The engine of the 6,900-dwt Cook Islands-flag multipurpose Briza (built 2003) failed at around 23:30 GMT on Friday night as it transited the waterway, according to ship agency Tribeca Shipping.
It anchored near Istanbul’s Kandilli area, then lifted anchor at 01:20 GMT on Saturday and was taken to an anchorage in the southern Bosphorus by tug boats.
