Ammonia Pipeline Tensions Escalate Between Russia and Ukraine.
Russia has accused a Ukrainian "sabotage" group of blowing up the Tolyatti-Odesa pipeline, the world's longest ammonia pipeline, near the village of Masyutovka in the northeastern Kharkiv region. The pipeline stopped operating after Moscow sent troops to Ukraine in February 2022. The resumption of Russia's ammonia exports through the link is one of Moscow's conditions to continue with the grain export deal, which allows safe passage for Ukrainian grain shipments. Russia also has accused the West of blocking its exports of fertilizer, for which ammonia is a core component.
