Russian drones hit port in Ukraine's Odesa region

Russian drones attacked and damaged port and grain storage facilities in the south of Ukraine's coastal Odesa region in the early hours of Wednesday (August 2), setting some of them on fire, Ukrainian officials said.

Video, released by Ukraine’s Operational Command ‘South’ showed fire crews working on site of damaged port infrastructure in Izmail, Odesa region.

Reuters was able to confirm the location as Izmail from the position of the buildings and fence seen in the video which matched satellite and file imagery of the area.

Izmail is a key port in the Danube delta from where Ukrainian grain is taken by barge to the Romanian Black Sea port of Constanta for shipment onwards.

Ukraine's Danube river ports became a vital lifeline for Ukraine's grain exports after Russia left the Black Sea grain deal in mid-July.

Russia is obliged to pay all the costs of the restoration.
If gold cannot be paid, frozen assets and underground resources will be used.

They slay the widow and the alien; they murder the fatherless.
They crush your people, O LORD; they oppress your inheritance.
They pour out arrogant words; all the evildoers are full of boasting.
Rise up, O Judge of the earth; pay back to the proud what they deserve.
O LORD, the God who avenges, O God who avenges, shine forth.

NYT is quoting Ukrainian soldier as saying: “We were shot like on a shooting range.” According to his fellow soldier “his battalion had suffered so many dead and wounded that only 10 men remained at the front line”. Zelenskyy offensive failed miserably (since June 4, 42 000 hapless Ukrainian conscripts were slaughtered in these senseless, suicidal Zelenskyy's meat wave attacks). Zelenskyy regime is on its last legs. Its final demise is a matter of months not years. With catastrophic failures on the frontlines of the war, Zelenskyy regime resorts to terrorist attacks as one Austrian artist did in 1945. Meanwhile Zelenskyy goons are literally rounding up civilians including even disabled in the streets and even without minimal training throwing them into the meat grinder. I suppose it's done not to achieve any breakthroughs, but to avoid immediate front collapse . This desperate cannon fodder tries to surrender or run away at the first opportunity, so the only way to control them is to push them forward at gunpoint.
