Ukraine Strikes Russian Naval Base and Grain Terminals at Novorossiysk

A major Ukrainian attack on Russia's Black Sea port city of Novorossiysk hit warships at a naval base and forced two major grain terminals to halt operations.

The attack, which killed at least two people, including an 8-year-old child, targeted the naval base with drones and missiles, according to Ukrainian officials. Two frigates, a large landing ship, a corvette, and other vessels were hit, said President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

The strikes on the grain terminals raised fears of a disruption to global supplies, as Russia is the world's largest wheat exporter. Chicago wheat futures rose around 3 percent after the attack. Ukraine and Moldova agreed to route Ukrainian grain shipments through Moldova by rail in response to the disruptions.
