"Escalating Tensions: Russia's Aggression in Ukraine Sparks Concerns"

Russian missiles have struck grain warehouses in Odesa, Ukraine, destroying tons of crops in storage, as Moscow's forces targeted the southern port city for a fourth straight night. The attacks come after Russia pulled out of a critical grain deal that allowed Ukrainian grain exports a safe way out of the country's Black Sea ports, raising concerns about food security. Ukrainian air defenses have struggled to cope with the types of missiles used by Russia, and the country is working with partners to enhance its air defense systems. The UN is continuing negotiations on Ukrainian grain exports, but there are concerns about achieving stability and addressing global food insecurity. Ukrainian troops have started using US-provided cluster munitions in their counteroffensive against Russia.
