Russland beschießt Donauhafen der Ukraine
August 2, 2023 -
Eine Drohne schoss auf den größten Inlandshafen der Ukraine, über die Donau in Rumänien hinaus, da Moskau seine Bemühungen die Getreidelieferungen aus der Ukraine zu blockieren, intensivierte.
Ukraine's defence ministry said a grain warehouse and a passenger building were damaged in the Danube port of Izmail in the Odesa region.
The attack against Ukraine's main inland port across the Danube River from Romania sent global food prices higher.
The Danube ports serve as the main route out of Ukraine for grain exports, since Russia pulled out of the UN-backed Black Sea deal that enabled both countries to export grain safely.
