In the port of Azov, several Russian sailors aboard the 'Riroil 5', which berthed on May 19, 2018, declared a hunger strike demanding repayment of their salary debts. The amount of debt was 100.000 dollars. Sailors of three more ships, the Turkish company Palmali did not pay salaries, some have debts of eight months. The owner gets in touch every day and promises to pay off the debt, but has not done so yet. Mariners were preparing legal claims on Palmali.
