Kyiv is flooded this week with 50,000 watermelons shipped 800 km upriver by barge

Kyiv is flooded this week with 50,000 watermelons shipped 800 km upriver by barge from Hola Pristan, Kherson region, by Nibulon, the agro business. The shipment was designed to educate capital residents about the merits of river transportation. But Nibulon found docking charges in Kyiv to be too high and opted to unload the 500 tons of watermelons at their terminal at Pereyaslav-Khmelnitsky, a Kyiv region town on the left bank. Trucks made the last 95 km to Kyiv.
