Russian attack on Reni port
On the night of July 24, Russia launched an attack on the Ukrainian river port of Reni, situated near the border with Romania. The drone attack resulted in the destruction of a grain warehouse and other cargo facilities.
The following day, world wheat prices drastically went up, with wheat futures in Chicago rising by 2.6% to $7.7725 per bushel, reaching the highest level since February 21.
This strike was part of the almost daily shelling of the Odesa region after Russia declared its withdrawal from the "grain deal."
