In a provocative move, Russian drones targeted infrastructure at a Ukrainian port on the Danube, causing damage to facilities crucial for grain shipments. This attack comes after Russia’s withdrawal from a key export agreement, which allowed around 33 million tons of grain to leave Ukrainian ports. The strike on the grain elevator in the port of Izmail, located across the Danube River from Romania, has disrupted the main export route for Ukrainian agricultural products.
Turkey, which brokered the deal, has urged Russia not to escalate tensions, emphasizing the significance of the grain agreement as a “bridge for peace.” However, Russia’s actions have been condemned by Paris, accusing Moscow of prioritizing its own interests and putting global food security at risk.
This attack clearly reveals Putin’s strategy for his unjust war. The image is straightforward: a massive hole in a grain silo, a visual that’s easy to comprehend.
