This was reported by Minister of Community Development, Territories and Infrastructure Oleksandr Kubrakov.

Several private grain terminals and warehouses, cargo infrastructure were damaged. Agro-products were intended for Egypt and Romania," the statement said.

Kubrakov stressed that Russia is systematically hitting grain tanks and warehouses to stop agro-exports.

Only this night the export capacity of the port of Izmail was reduced by 15%, before that it was the port of Reni and 35 thousand tonnes of grain destroyed there. Today is already the 8th attack on the port infrastructure after Russia's withdrawal from the Grain Initiative. In just one month of attacks on ports, 270 thousand tonnes of grain have been destroyed," the minister said.

Kubrakov wrote that "attacks on grain infrastructure are attacks on African and Asian countries that are already short of food. These are attacks on food world markets, which have already reacted by raising the price of wheat due to the lack of Ukrainian food after the stopping of the Grain Initiative and the attacks on the Danube ports."
