Kiev said on Wednesday that Russia destroyed 60,000 tons of grain that should have been exported.

The attacks in the port of Odesa were reported to have taken place shortly after midnight.

Russia has launched missiles into Ukraine's southern Odesa region for two nights in a row, hitting ports on the Black Sea, after walking away from a deal that allowed Kiev to export grain by sea.

The Ukrainian Ministry of Agriculture has said that "60,000 tons of grain have been destroyed" in the port of Chornomorsk, outside Odesa.

She said that this quantity was planned to be exported "60 days ago".

According to her, food security in the world is being jeopardized once again.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has previously said that Russia "deliberately targeted cereals".

On Monday, Russia refused to extend the grain shipping agreement, and has since warned of "dangers" of grain exports through the Black Sea.

The United Nations has said that the poorest countries "will pay the price" for breaking the agreement, while even the West has condemned such a thing./ REL
