Russia is preparing to reroute grain exports after Ukrainian attacks disrupted shipping in the Sea of Azov, a corridor that normally handles about 25 percent of the country’s grain exports. Russian officials say grain shipments can be redirected through Black Sea and Baltic Sea ports and do not expect the disruption to affect export volumes or domestic food supplies. The shipping restrictions come as Ukraine intensifies strikes on Russian energy infrastructure, adding another layer of uncertainty to global grain trade and export logistics.
