Ukraine says it has attacked vessels in the Caspian Sea used to transfer military cargo between Russia and Iran.<\/p>\n
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Saturday that Ukrainian forces also struck a logistics facility in Yekaterinburg in central Russia.<\/p>\n
The attacks came as Ukraine steps up efforts to disrupt Russian supply chains to weaken its fighting capabilities.<\/p>\n
Iran’s Foreign Ministry strongly condemned Ukraine, saying it had struck an Iranian commercial vessel in the Caspian Sea. They called it a violation of international law. The ministry said the attack killed one sailor and injured another.<\/p>\n
Iran says it has never intervened in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Tehran criticized Ukraine, saying Kyiv is seeking to expand the war.<\/p>\n
The General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces said on Sunday that it also hit energy- and military-related facilities in Crimea. It claims the sites were being used for Russian refueling efforts and for controlling drones. Russia unilaterally annexed Crimea in 2014.<\/p>\n
Russia also continued its attacks against Ukraine.<\/p>\n
Ukraine’s State Emergency Service said on Sunday that Russian strikes killed two people, including a 9-year-old girl, in the Chernihiv region in Ukraine’s north.<\/p>\n
The emergency service also said one person was killed in the eastern region of Kharkiv and another in the southern region of Zaporizhzhia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ukraine says it has attacked vessels in the Caspian Sea used to transfer military cargo between Russia and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":21437,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[4635,4744,3235,4746,82,4745,4749,4750,4751,4748,1376,4747,4752,2151,369],"class_list":["post-21436","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news","tag-asia","tag-biz","tag-japan","tag-japan-broadcasting-corporation","tag-news","tag-nhk","tag-nhk-world","tag-nhk-world-premium","tag-nhk-world-tv","tag-nhkworld","tag-nuclear","tag-public-broadcaster","tag-radio-japan","tag-tech","tag-world"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21436","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21436"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21436\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21437"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21436"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21436"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21436"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
