“17% of the global export of these products passed through this terminal in the city of Mykolaiv. Russia continues the policy of aggression against the whole world, inflicting similar blows on the civilian infrastructure of the agrarian sector of Ukraine’s economy,” emphasized the press officer of Mykolaiv Regional Military Administration.
The drone attacks damaged two sunflower oil tanks with a capacity of seven and a half thousand tons each on the territory of the Zavodskyi district enterprise.
