Russian drones have attacked Ukrainian ports on the River Danube, destroying grain storage infrastructure, local officials say.

The facilities are just across the river from Nato-member Romania.

The Danube is a key export route for Kyiv since Russia pulled out of a deal allowing Ukraine to ship wheat, corn and other products via the Black Sea.

A grain depot was also destroyed in the Black Sea port city of Odesa, which has come under almost nightly attack.

Officials say more than 60,000 tonnes of grain have been destroyed in the past week.

Global markets have seen the price of grain rise by 8% within a day of Russia's pullout from the grain deal, on 17 July.

 

The collapse of the deal also means that Russia has resumed targeting of port locations in Ukraine which had been suspended during the deal.

Odesa head Oleh Kiper, whose region also covers the Danube ports of Reni and Izmail, said in his Telegram channel that Russia had attacked the infrastructure there for four hours with Iranian-made drones.

He said a grain hangar and tanks for storage were destroyed. Other local officials say three warehouses were bombed.

yet when the Ukrainians send drones over Russia Putin cries and whines like a little child. 

 

There is a way out for Russia.

 

Complete surrender, the return of ALL Ukrainian men, women, children and POWs, a complete withdrawal from ALL occupied areas of the Ukraine, reparations to rebuild the Ukraine that Russia had and is still destroying daily.

 

Who or what is stopping this.

 

In a single word, it is Putin.

 

He is riding the tiger and he cannot get off or the tiger will eat him. Never mind that the tiger will eat him anyway.

 

Meanwhile Ukrainian men, women and children plus the military on both sides are dying daily because of Putin and his damned ambition.
