Russia could use sea mines to attack the Black Sea grain corridor
According to British intelligence, Russian troops may use sea mines to destroy civilian maritime targets in the Black Sea. According to this report, “Russia, of course, wants to avoid outright sinking of civilian ships, but instead falsely accuses Ukraine of any attacks on civilian ships in the Black Sea.” Russia has currently blocked trade routes across the Black Sea following the failure of the Black Sea Grain Initiative in July. At the same time, Moscow attacked port and grain infrastructure and “has already destroyed enough grain to feed more than a million people for a year.”
