Russian missile killed four Syrians in Odessa
A Russian ballistic missile strike on the port of Odessa in southern Ukraine killed four Syrian people and damaged a Barbados-flagged cargo ship, on the evening of June 34, 2025, shortly after Ukraine agreed to a US proposal for a 30-day ceasefire with Russia. At the time of the attack, the ship was loading wheat destined for Algeria. Russia thus continued attacking Ukraine's infrastructure, including ports that contribute to global food security.
Iranian made drones attacked Odesa
For the fourth day in a row, Iranian-made drones attacked Odesa on Sep 26 in the morning, this time against military targets and without civilian casualties. On Sep 23, two civilians were killed during Russian drone attacks on the port city. On Sep 25, Odesa was attacked by three drones, one of which was reportedly shot down by Ukrainian forces. Ukraine has not officially identified the drones, but from the video footage below it appears, according to experts, that they are Iranian-produced Shakhed 136 drones.
Russian act of barbarism one day after deal was signed
Russian missiles struck the port of Odessa on July 23, 2022, violating a deal signed a day earlier to curb grain exports from Black Sea ports and ease global food shortages caused by the war. The Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy described the strike as blatant "barbarism" and that Moscow could not be trusted to implement the agreement. The Ukrainian military said that the missiles had not caused any significant damage and that preparations were underway to resume grain exports from Black Sea ports. The deal, signed by Moscow and Kyiv on July 22 and brokered by the United Nations and Turkey, has been hailed as a breakthrough after nearly five months of punitive fighting since Russia invaded its neighbor. By allowing grain exports from Black Sea ports, including Odessa, it is seen as crucial in curbing rising global food prices.
