President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned what he called a 'horrific' attack by two Russian drones on a civilian boat carrying corn in the Black Sea. The vessel was in neutral waters and owned by Türkiye, with Azerbaijani and Indian citizens on board. Casualties were not immediately clear, and the strike has drawn renewed attention to risks facing civilian shipping in the region.
