Russia Attacked Ukrainian Ports and Vessels 124 Times in July

As a result of the Russian attack on the transport infrastructure of Odesa and civilian vessels, 10 people were injured. In July, there were 124 strikes recorded on seaports, vessels at docks, and in the Ukrainian maritime corridor. Medical assistance is being provided to the injured, and efforts to mitigate the consequences of the attacks are underway. In the first days of August, Russia carried out five attacks on seaport facilities, three attacks on civilian vessels, and two attacks on vessels in the maritime corridor. In July, there were 67 attacks on seaport facilities, 35 attacks on civilian vessels, and 22 attacks on vessels in the maritime corridor. The intensification of attacks poses risks to the operation of Ukrainian ports and maritime exports, and may also affect the stability of logistics routes. Ukraine has faced difficulties in exporting grain through the Black Sea, with some shipowners avoiding the Odesa area, and traders considering redirecting supplies via the Danube.
