Russia threatens to attack any ships traveling through the "grain corridor" to Ukrainian ports

Starting from 20 July, Russia has declared all ships sailing in the waters of the Black Sea to Ukrainian ports as such that are carrying military cargo. Thus, the terrorist state will consider them a "legitimate military target".

The position of the Russian Defense Ministry was published by Russian media. A number of sea areas in the northwestern and southeastern parts of the international waters of the Black Sea have been declared temporarily dangerous for navigation.

"The flag countries of such vessels will be considered involved in the Ukrainian conflict on the side of the Kyiv regime," the report said.

Moscow also emphasized that all mariners are informed about the possible consequences of violating the regulations in an appropriate manner.

Recall that since July 18, Russia unilaterally terminated the grain agreement. Henceforth, the coordination center in Turkey will be disbanded, but Ankara promised "not to stop the efforts", and Ukraine counts on the work of the "grain corridor" and without Russia.

As reported OBOZREVATEL, Ukraine expects from the UN practical actions to ensure the "grain corridor". If the organization will not start a clear and rigid work to continue exporting Ukrainian grain, and again will generate only statements, there will be no question about any safety of food ships.

Also, President Zelensky pointed out that on July 19, Russian terrorists deliberately targeted the infrastructure of the grain agreement during a massive attack on Ukraine. Each Russian missile is a blow not only to Ukraine, but to everyone in the world who seeks a normal and safe life.
