EU says it has approached Israel over Russian grain boat that docked in Haifa

The European Union has approached Israel regarding a Russian vessel, carrying what Ukraine described as grain stolen from it, that was allowed to dock in the Israeli port of Haifa, an EU foreign affairs spokesperson said on Tuesday.

Ukraine's Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said Israel's ambassador had been summoned over what he described as Israeli inaction ⁠in allowing shipments of grain to enter the country from Russian-occupied Ukraine.

"We condemn all actions that help fund Russia's illegal war effort and circumvent EU sanctions, and remain ready to target such actions by listing individuals and entities in third countries if necessary," EU spokesperson Anouar El Anouni said in response to a request for ⁠comment on the situation.

"We have approached the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the issue," he said.
