Russia continues to attack Danube ports to stop grain exports and raise world prices

On the night of September 7, the Russian Federation again attacked the ports of Odesa with attack drones, Oleg Kiper, the head of Odesa OVA, said.

Already the fourth attack in the last five days lasted for three hours. As a result of the attack, civil and port infrastructure facilities, an elevator, and an administrative building were damaged in several settlements.

If on the night of September 6, the Russians launched 8 missiles in the direction of Kyiv, which were destroyed by air defense, and 25 drones at Odesa and Dnipropetrovsk regions, of which only 15 were shot down, then on the night of September 7, 33 Shahed-136 attack UAVs were launched at Sumy region and Odesa /131, of which 25 were shot down.

The continuation of attacks on the Danube ports, which ensure the minimum volume of Ukrainian grain exports, on the eve of and after the meeting between Erdogan and Putin, where the new grain agreement was discussed, shows that the Russian Federation will continue to prevent the supply of grain from Ukraine, which could improve the income of the budget and Ukrainian farmers .

In addition, the Russian Federation is trying to raise world prices for grain in order to sell 60 million tons of its grain and grain stolen in Ukraine as profitably as possible.
