Russian officials insisted that the airstrike - less than a day after Russia and Ukraine signed an agreement on resuming grain shipments from there - hit only military targets.

"In the seaport in the city of Odesa, on the territory of a shipyard, sea-based high-precision long-range missiles destroyed a docked Ukrainian warship and a warehouse with Harpoon anti-ship missiles supplied by the U.S. to the Kyiv regime," ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said at a daily briefing.

Command spokeswoman Nataliya Humenyuk said that no grain storage facilities were hit. Turkey's defense minister, however, said he had had reports from Ukrainian authorities that one missile struck a grain silo while another landed nearby, although neither affected loading at Odesa's docks. The agreement, obtained by The Associated Press, committed both Kyiv and Moscow to refraining from strikes on the three Black Sea ports.

The U.K. military on Sunday morning reported in its daily intelligence update that Russia was making"minimal progress" in its ongoing Donbas offensive, which it said remained small-scale and focused on the city of Bakhmut in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk region.

Russia Strikes Ukrainian Port Less than One Day After UN Export DealIt’s unclear, the New York Times reports, whether the Russian strikes technically violated the deal—brokered to secure the transport of grain to impoverished nations currently weathering a food crisis. Time for NATO to attack Moscow to allow them experience the war crimes the citizens deny of doing to Ukrainian innocence. Time to use those anti gravity crafts America. Well said. The NYT reports are king of the both sides hill. Technically, somewhere smells like russians money.

'A beacon of hope': Ukraine, Russia sign grain export dealRussia and Ukraine signed separate agreements Friday with Turkey and the United Nations clearing the way for the export of millions of tons of desperately needed Ukrainian grain — as well as some Russian grain and fertilizer — across the Black Sea. The U.N. plan will enable Ukraine — one of the world's key breadbaskets — to export 22 million tons of grain and other agricultural goods that have been stuck in Black Sea ports due to Russia's invasion. U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres called it “a beacon of hope” for millions of hungry people who have faced huge increases in the price of food.

Russia-Ukraine Grain Deal Won’t Translate Into Big Exports ImmediatelyThe agreement between Moscow and Kyiv to allow for the export of Ukrainian grain is helping push global prices lower, but it won’t translate into a slug of new exports soon.

Maritime Trade Disrupted - The War in Ukraine and Its Effects on Maritime Look Russia - Ukraine working together in a sentence is good enough, let it take time !!! 1 day at a time. The deal was on condition that Russia is allowed to trade fertilizer and some other goods as well. So that si more money coming from the west to help the Russian war effort because the west has no other option and our sanctions are doing nothing at all.
