During Missile Strike on Mykolaiv, the Russians Destroyed the Second Largest Grain Terminal in Ukraine – Borrell

On June 4th, Russia launched another missile strike on Mykolaiv, which caused a major fire at the large grain storage terminal.

Josep Borrell, the European Union's High Representative, strongly condemned the attack, CNN reports.

"Another Russian missile strike contributing to the global food crisis. Russian forces have destroyed the second biggest grain terminal in Ukraine, in Mykolaiv", Borrell tweeted.

According to him, this strike was at odds with recent pledges by Russian President Vladimir Putin to offer safe passage through the Black Sea from Ukrainian ports for merchant shipping.

"The disinformation spread by Putin deflecting blame becomes ever more cynical", he said in his tweet.
