- Russia’s missile attacks on Ukrainian power infrastructure this week, which included a strike on an apartment that killed a resident, was in response to a drone attack on the Russian fleet in Crimea, President Vladimir Putin told media today, as quoted by Reuters.
- It is also bad news for energy markets because, after the sabotage of Nord Stream 1 and 2, Ukraine remains one of just two channels for Russian gas to Europe, along with Turkey.
- The participating parties had agreed on the departure of 12 outbound vessels after due inspection from the joint coordination center that involves Russian and Ukrainian officials.
