Such information is disseminated by the "authority" illegally installed by Russia in the territory of the temporarily occupied Kherson region. They said 12 ships, most of which belong to Turkey, cannot leave Kherson due to Ukrainian mines. "The crews are not in danger, and the ships are under guard," said collaborator Kyrylo Stremousov. However, it is fake.

There are 14 ships (3 Ukrainian and 11 foreign) in the port of Kherson, which remained under conditions of blockade and occupation. However, it was Russian troops and mines that blocked their way out. Both international organizations and individual countries confirm this. Even though Ukrainian mines seem to interfere with foreign ships, the occupiers spread the statement that "Kherson sea trade port is resuming work and preparing for cargo transportation." So, the occupiers themselves contradict their words.
