Russia's 'Hellish' Attack on Ukraine's Odesa Port Sparks Tensions

Russia launched a massive air attack on Ukraine's Odesa port for a second consecutive night, causing significant damage and casualties. The attack, described as "hellish" by a Ukrainian official, came in retaliation for a blast on a bridge linking Russia to the Crimean Peninsula that Moscow blamed on Ukraine. The Odesa port is a crucial hub for Ukraine's grain exports, and Russia's withdrawal from a Black Sea grain agreement has raised concerns about global food security. Despite the attacks, Ukrainian authorities remain determined to continue their work and export grains.
