Ukrainian ports have been targeted by Russian forces on Sunday hitting “civil infrastructure” of the Danube in Odessa which lasted for more than “3.5 hours.”

More than 24 Russian kamikaze drones on grain stores on the border with NATO member Romania which threatens to provoke “food crisis and famine in the world.”

Since Vladimir Putin pulled out of the Black Sea initiative in July Russian vessels have blocked international waters in the Black Sea blockading ships from moving through the waters with grain.
