# Ukraine Black Sea corridor still too risky for most shippers, industry says | Global Trade Review (GTR)

> Ukraine's temporary Black Sea corridor, set up by its navy after the grain deal collapsed, has received a second wave of commercial vessels carrying about 127,000 tonnes of agri-products and iron ore. Experts warn that significant dangers remain and that export volumes will likely be constrained in coming months.
