Russia Attacks Two Ukrainian Ports, Kyiv Says
Russia's repeated strikes on Odesa's seaports have caused casualties and damaged key infrastructure while the ports continue to operate, Ukraine's officials said.
- On Jan 7, Russia struck Chornomorsk and Pivdennyi seaports in Odesa region, killing one person and injuring eight, Ukrainian officials said.
- Retaliatory steps by Moscow followed Ukraine's actions against shadow-fleet tankers, as Kyiv says maritime revenue streams fund Russia's war and Moscow vowed to cut Ukraine off from the sea.
- Port facilities, administrative buildings and tanks of vegetable oil were hit, damaging a Renault truck’s windshield and a logistics truck, while emergency services work to mitigate damage.
- Despite damage, the ports remain operational as crews clear wreckage, the seaports authority said Moscow attacked Odesa-region seaports 96 times in 2025, nearly triple 2024.
- Oleksii Kuleba warned that attacks on Ukraine's maritime gateway for grain exports, including Chornomorsk and Pivdennyi, risk disrupting global food security, with `This is yet another attack by a terrorist country on port infrastructure that is involved in ensuring global food security`.
