Black Sea port of Odesa just hours after Moscow and Kyiv signed deals to allow grain exports to resume from there.United NationsTwo Russian Kalibr cruise missiles hit the port's infrastructure and Ukrainian air defences brought down two others, the Ukrainian military’s Southern Command said. Odesa regional governor Maksym Marchenko said an unspecified number of people were injured in the attack.
Documents obtained by The Associated Press showed the deals called for the creation of a UN-led joint coordination centre in Istanbul where officials from Ukraine, Russia and Turkey would oversee the scheduling and searches of cargo ships. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the attack casts serious doubt on the credibility of Russia’s commitment to the grain deal.
In the southern Kherson region, which Russian troops seized early in the invasion, Ukrainian forces preparing for a potential counteroffensive fired rockets at Dnieper River crossings to try to disrupt Russian supply lines. Still, Russian troops have largely held their ground in the Kherson region just north of the Crimean Peninsula, which Russia annexed in 2014.
