Russia’s defence ministry said Ukraine attacked the Black Sea Fleet near Sevastopol on the annexed Crimean peninsular with 16 drones in the early hours of Saturday, and that British navy “specialists” had helped coordinate the “terrorist” attack.
Russia said the step, which will cut Ukrainian grain exports from its crucial Black Sea ports, was taken due to the drone attack and the participation of British specialists. “I call on all states to demand Russia to stop its hunger games and recommit to its obligations,” Kuleba said. Russia will officially notify UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres shortly of its suspension of the Ukraine Black Sea grain deal, Russia’s Deputy UN Ambassador Dmitry Polyanskiy said.United Nations aid chief Martin Griffiths said only on Wednesday that he was “relatively optimistic” that the deal would be extended beyond mid-November.
“We underline the urgency of doing so to contribute to food security across the world, and to cushion the suffering that this global cost-of-living crisis is inflicting on billions of people,” UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said.
