Vessel traffic through the Bosphorus strait was stopped in both directions. The reason was a malfunction in the engine of one of the stock carriers. This was reported by the Turkish Coast Guard. It is clarified that the ship Elisover Mamedov, flying the flag of St. Kitts and Nevis, traveled from the Bulgarian Varna and stopped near the Kanlidze district in Istanbul. Tugboats have already been sent to him.
