Pure car carrier MV Global Fuji, made her maiden call at the Port of Mombasa today to discharge 579 motor vehicle units.
The vessel which is the second LNG-powered ship to be handled at the Port of Mombasa arrived and docked at Berth no. 1 at 1100 hrs.
KPA's Manager Marine Operations Capt. Moses Muthama presented Certificate of First Call and a commemorative plaque to the ship's Master, Oleksandr Gusyev, on behalf of the Chief Executive Officer Capt. William Ruto.
Capt. Muthama expressed the Authority's commitment in implementing its Green Port Policy through support for cleaner vessel technologies, emission reduction measures in marine operations and investment in sustainable infrastructure.
He added that the arrival of LNG-powered vessels reflects the growing confidence in the Port of Mombasa as a partner in the global transition to environmentally responsible shipping.
On his part Capt. Gusyev noted LNG propulsion is both cheaper and cleaner saying refueling infrastructure remains a great challenge in some regions.
MV Global Fuji, which has an overall length of 200 meters, runs primarily on Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), using about 5 percent diesel for start-up, in line with global efforts to cut greenhouse gas emissions from maritime transport.
LNG propulsion significantly reduces sulphur oxides, nitrogen oxides and carbon emissions compared to conventional marine fuels, positioning it as a key transitional option as the industry moves toward net-zero.
Globally, shipping is accelerating it's shift toward cleaner fuels and lower emissions. Pure car carriers are among vessel segments leading the transition to cleaner fuels, as operators respond to tightening emissions targets set by the International Maritime Organization (IMO).
The fact that some people read this as peopaganda is actually depressing.
Here is the clip, this is not propaganda. The directive came from the office of the president.
The body of Clinton Nyapara Mogesa, a Kenyan citizen born in 1997, was found at one of the positions of Russian forces, Ukraine’s Defense Intelligence reported.
Mogesa had lived and worked in Qatar before later signing a contract with the Russian armed forces and being sent to one of Russia’s assault units.
After only brief training, Mogesa was killed during a "meat assault" in Donetsk region.
Russians did not evacuate his body, and his family has received neither compensation nor any explanation from the Russian side.
The killed mercenary was also carrying passports belonging to two other Kenyan citizens - likely fellow recruits, whom Russia is preparing to send into future assaults.
I have an end month offer for the body butters… both the hydrating and exfoliating one😊 The ingredients list for both, depending on what your preference is…
✈️Belarusian cargo plane flew to Cambodia just a few hours after the ceasefire went into effect
The Il-62MGr first made a stopover in Mombasa, Kenya, and then continued directly to Cambodia.
Notably, the route deliberately avoided Thai airspace, passing instead over Malaysia.
The nature of the cargo remains highly suspicious.
The Embassy of the UAE in Tel Aviv wishes you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
May your holiday be filled with joy, peace, and wonderful moments with loved ones.

Ever bought spices, followed a recipe… and the flavor still wasn’t there?
It’s not the spice. It’s timing + technique.
So here’s a deeper thread on understanding spices, heat, and technique.
