Ukraine says nearly 300,000 tonnes of grain destroyed.

Russia’s attacks on Ukraine’s agricultural infrastructure and ships since July have destroyed nearly 300,000 tonnes of grain, Reuters reported, citing the Ukrainian government. Since Russia quit the Black Sea Grain Initiative in July, its military forces have hit six civilian ships and 150 port and grain facilities during 17 attacks, destroying crops headed for export, Deputy Prime Minister Oleksandr Kubrakov said in a statement.
